Good place to work - but company loyalty is not highly rewarded

Director

Recommend

CEO approval

Business Outlook

Pros

Great reputation in the software world - de facto standard for ERP. Comp is competitive but not great- unless you leave and come back.

Cons

HR puts up road blocks and does not reward loyalty with higher pay or opportunities. There is some degree of empire-building with ex-Siebel and ex-Oracle etc. people coming into higher level positions and immediately promoting their brethren hired in 2 weeks later. Also some short-sightedness in my opinion on quarterly results for license sales.

Great communicator, motivator, and extremely savvy

Consultant

Recommend

CEO approval

Business Outlook

Pros

Great autonomy; freedom to perform your job since you are not micro managed by your manager. Work with extremely talented and the brightest people in the SAP space. Employees are fairly compensated and rewards can be great for those that meet, and or exceed their target. Benefits are much better as compared to many high tech organizations and the options and services continue to get better.

Cons

Work life balance is, at times, very difficult to achieve Career development has to be forced because for many roles within SAP there is not a clearly defined promotion path past a certain level
