Pros

I've been a passionate SAP employee for over a decade. I've always thought we've been taken care of fairly. Compensated well and work in a great culture.

Cons

Things have drastically changed the last two years in a bad way. They really shafted us this year in our compensation. 1.5% cost of living raises in North America - meanwhile our CEO takes a 165% YoY raise. Something isn't right here.

Pros

Remote work, great benefits, decent pay...if you can get it, generous PTO

Cons

They seem to operate via the good ole boy network. How can you have a team of 90+...and have only 2 people of color on the team. Make it make sense. Raises are a joke. And certain directors...are out of touch with reality.

Pros

SAP has some challenging problems to tackle and the foot-in-the-door, brand trust and recognition, and truly amazing talent to be at least considered as the vendor of choice for any company in the world. It's an exciting premise and when you're on a good team working on a promising project it's exhilarating.

Cons

SAP is one of the most political companies I've ever experienced. Major business decisions are made in the hallways or cafeteria in the headquarters in Walldorf, Germany. There is no attempt to combat the proximity bias. Meetings are overproduced stage performances, while all meaningful outcomes occur in the meeting-before-the-meeting or the meeting-after-the-meeting which contributes to confusion, lack of transparency, appearance of favoritism and sometimes ill-thought-through decisions. I'm not even to go into the deeply troubling rumors of board members cheating on their spouses with subordinates, but suffice it to say yuck; this is not mad men. Even if these rumors are untrue, rumors are only fueled if they are believable enough so that tells you something about the personal character. No one is saying that about Satya Nadella for example.
