Pros

Management is generally fair and reasonable, and there is a recent focus on innovation and moving beyond the traditional money-makers into new areas, which is positive.

Cons

Like nearly anything the size of SAP, it moves slowly. A conservative corporate culture still pervades many aspects of the business and sometimes it is possible to get mired down in endless rounds of discuss without real progress.

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
