Pros
Navigator provides a ramp-up and certification plan to help you move quickly into the position. As an application consultant, you'll have customer-facing experiences on a daily basis. This helps to promote fast growth in your knowledge of SAP, of Navigator's integrated products, and of business processes as a whole for a wide array of industries.
Cons
The application consulting ramp-up was too fast for comfort. To move someone reasonably into a new software as large as ByDesign, it would be ideal to have a training plan that covers each of the main areas you'll be working in, and have that training plan span a few months. When the full training is crammed into a month and a half, and is combined with other projects, customer issues, and product trainings, that can cause fast burnout.
