Pros

Respectful of employees, very flexible with personal schedules and issues, good compensation and benefits, nice perks like subsidized lunches, good systems for finding and retrieving information

Cons

Some of the internal IT systems are a bit antiquated. It is also miserable dealing with expense reports, something to keep in mind if you are going to travel. Also, the team you are on is really the key indicator of how satisfying your job will be. Everyone clamors to be on the latest, cool project. If you aren't "in" with the folks in Palo Alto, you will have a hard time getting noticed and promoted.

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
