Pros

When I started early this decade, it still had the European impact and the employee benefits were very good. The SAP application platform still is still a very good product.

Cons

As time went on, the American corporate greed really started showing its ugly face to the employees. While the financial growth of the company was in double digits every quarter and year to year, the employee benefits swiftly went down from good to neutral to poor. The C-Level bonuses went up and so is the incompetence and cronyism. Though the company preaches training, self improvement, family time etc for well rounded life, it is never practiced. Your training time will not be counted for productivity and so is your vacation. As an employee to get good bonus you almost have to kill yourself working. One of the biggest con is the bonus calculations. You are never told how your bonus was calculated.

Pros

The people at SAP are genuinely nice, and the culture is generally supportive. The work-life balance is good to an extent, but when you're busy, you're BUSY. SAP is highly complex so expect to take a year to ramp up.

Cons

Only way to get a high salary is if you're hired externally. They do not reward employees who are loyal to the company. Closed opportunities often have to go through the Compensation Exception Committee, creating uncertainty around earnings. Prepare for constant change, whether that's solutions being removed from your sales bag, account shifts, territory realignments, or changing compensation policies. Quotas can be difficult to attain
