Pros

Strong HR principles and takes good care of employees. Takes risks with forward looking project management practices like lean principles. Very strong work ethics and very fair and safe work environments. Everyone is extremely professional, takes constructive criticisms individually and collectively very well. Good work life balance. Very nice work environment and near Google level office (in ergonomics, not playfulness).

Cons

Unambitious and puts 40 people to work on something for a year that you think you can do it yourself in a month. Have the willpower and skills to do much more than your post? Tough luck. Rigid hierarchy. Managers eat among themselves. You will never be proud of what you create or showcase it to your friends. As entreprise software, design and UI will always be absolutely abysmal. Individual opinions or ambitions don't matter. Raises are meaningless.

Pros

The human aspect: something easily forgotten in tech companies, is one of the major drivers inside SAP. Not just inside the organization, but also giving back to the community, many incentives for volunteer work and donation campaigns to the benefit of children in need. A solid career opportunity, which values the employee and allows him to grow in his area of choice.

Cons

Too easy to stagnate and keep on doing the same work over and over if you don't have the discipline required to grow and are afraid of trying to move to a different line of business. The internal marketing sometimes conflicts with the corporate climate perceived by the employees.
