Pros

Work-life balance is good I have a good manager! Generally speaking the company’s executive management and board is also good (except for a few bad apples) Remote/hybrid flexibility Decent bonuses Liberal vacation policy

Cons

Marketing leadership and CMO (absolutely the worst!!!). Lack of diversity in marketing. DEI initiatives are primarily benefiting white/ Caucasian women. Women of color are disregarded for internal promotions. White men laid off to make way for white women with no experience . Men of color stand zero chance! LGBTQ has zero representation in marketing. Employee survey feedback is never acted upon. CMO from Microsoft prefer hiring from Microsoft ( laid off Microsoft employees should consider a career transition to SAP, courtesy Julia White) Julia’s contract renewal with SAP spells further doom for SAP (What is wrong is wrong with Hasso and the other founders?)

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
