Pros

Very entrepreneurial spirited company. Make your job what you want it to be, its empowering to carve out how you want to make impact. Very inclusive environment , you can really bring yourself to work Great pay and benefits, top notch and some of the best I have ever seen. Stable company that is very profitable and can inject profits into significant R&D and innovation investments. Great focus on simplification to help employees, and customers, succeed in a "frustration free" way . Top workplace, Fortune named top 100 place to work Top workplace for women, Anita Borg institute named top place for female technologists. First Tech company to receive the EDGE certification: Economic Dividend for Gender Equality. Tons of learning and development resources for employees. Supports working from home for a lot of roles. Agile organization that stays ahead of the curve and isnt afraid to make changes to business direction to stay ahead of market.

Cons

Can be challenging to get promoted if you don't market yourself and position your own promotions. Dont wait for a promotion to happen to you. Can be very long and hard hours in global roles. Even with flex working it can be 12 hour days or more starting at 5 am and ending in the PM. Resources can be overwhelming, there is a lot to wade through and self navigation is important. Accountability is not consistent throughout the organization. Top performing employees are often given the bulk of the work to make up for lower performers. Rewards are high when this happens but its a challenging work environment that doesnt always feel "fair".

Pros

If you are an SAP consultant there is really no other place to be. The perks at SAP are vast and the opportunities are enormous. I've been able to shape my career as I've wanted to with my manager's full support. I've gotten the chance to work on the latest and greatest software that is not yet well known to the other Big 4 (Deloitte, Accenture) and had a blast doing so. My manager is truly awesome and I consider her a friend. Great place to work as long as you are willing to work very hard. New stock options put SAP's benefit package superior to competitors. The benefits and 401k, competitive pay, travel benefits (airline clubs) and tuition reimbursement have been great.

Cons

Only downside is the ability to move around to other positions within SAP. While employed at SAP I've applied for multiple roles that I am qualified for and have not received a response. I left for one year, and applied for the same types of roles and was contacted on every one.
