Pros

- Market leader - Focus on people and processes - Very smart people, committed - Core products are of top quality, providing real value to customers

Cons

- No longer as good with career growth - management has programs for talented employees but its all talk and no action. - No clarity of vision from management - Focus has been on sales and margins rather than product quality, retaining top talent and good processes - Local/regional top management is pathetic, more keen on empty talk rather than making any "real" changes and improving the work-life balance for employees.

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
