Pros

SAP overall is a great company. There is low turnover and the majority of employess have been there 5+ years. They have great perks for fulltime employees i.e., free lunch, tuitiion reimbursement, etc. There are a lot of contract employees which don't reap these benefits. Contract employees are indefinite and there is really no explanation as to why this is or how to eventually become permanent. Overall I found it surprising that for a tech/software company a lot of upper management is on the "senior" side and not very technologically savvy at all.

Cons

The communication between the different departments is pretty nonexistent. The right hand has no idea what the left hand is doing. This creates frustration when you realize that 3-4 people have been tasked with the same thing and you've just been spinning your wheels. Also there are some senior level management that treat administrative staff as if they are beneath them even though without them they wouldn't be able get anything done. My work isn't necessarily challenging and I find myself bored and watching the clock quite often.

Pros

Good industry, exposure to new trends and technologies. Conservative company, engaged in sustainability activities. Facilities are appropriate with resources needed to work. Offices usually located in suburbs (rarely in downtown or centric places).

Cons

Too much focus in rewarding Senior Management. Not an equal opportunity employer comparing benefits offered to employees in different geographies: much more benefits offered to workforce in Germany and selected countries. Pressure is extreme. HR, Recruiting and Purchasing processes often fail, due to dependency on very few resources (i.e. vacation time disrupt processes). Yearly decrease of benefits to match industry peers.
