Pros

Very entrepreneurial spirited company. Make your job what you want it to be, its empowering to carve out how you want to make impact. Very inclusive environment , you can really bring yourself to work Great pay and benefits, top notch and some of the best I have ever seen. Stable company that is very profitable and can inject profits into significant R&D and innovation investments. Great focus on simplification to help employees, and customers, succeed in a "frustration free" way . Top workplace, Fortune named top 100 place to work Top workplace for women, Anita Borg institute named top place for female technologists. First Tech company to receive the EDGE certification: Economic Dividend for Gender Equality. Tons of learning and development resources for employees. Supports working from home for a lot of roles. Agile organization that stays ahead of the curve and isnt afraid to make changes to business direction to stay ahead of market.

Cons

Can be challenging to get promoted if you don't market yourself and position your own promotions. Dont wait for a promotion to happen to you. Can be very long and hard hours in global roles. Even with flex working it can be 12 hour days or more starting at 5 am and ending in the PM. Resources can be overwhelming, there is a lot to wade through and self navigation is important. Accountability is not consistent throughout the organization. Top performing employees are often given the bulk of the work to make up for lower performers. Rewards are high when this happens but its a challenging work environment that doesnt always feel "fair".

Pros

I really liked my role at SAP. After being a cloud Customer Success Manager supporting strategic clients for several years, I moved into a group doing digital customer outreach including producing newsletters, release enablement, webcasts, documentation, event registrations, etc. Salary and bonuses were good, no complaints there.

Cons

No real cons for the job that I was in, except that our group was eliminated by the corporate restructuring and reduction in workforce in North America in 2025. I would have loved to stay but unfortunately we probably showed up on a restructuring spreadsheet somewhere and it was determined that our services were no longer needed. We off-boarded most of our work to other existing employees (who already had full time jobs), which felt unfair to them, but that is how it shook out.
