Pros

No one ever seems to get fired, no matter how bad they do. The pay is excellent. The location and benefits are good.

Cons

No one ever seems to get fired, no matter how bad they do. This means low level managers who aren't fit to lead a dog on a walk desperately trying to get promoted who will do anything to impress their superiors. SAP is so big, if you have a problem there is no chance you'll ever talk to a real person in person. Everything is through ticketing systems, and it's all asynchronous, so nothing ever really gets solved. The good, competent people leave the company because of bad managers (this includes the good managers), which by and large leaves useless people leftover with a handful of good people pulling the weight of the whole project and not getting recognized for it (which leads to them eventually leaving).

A place with wonderful colleagues

Pros

Great projects, wonderful people, lots of constructive interactions, very respectful and safe environment to work. What makes SAP a great place to work is definitely the people working there. The products, topics, and technologies you can work on at SAP are very large. There are lots of opportunities to explore new roles as well as new fields within the company and to feel supported in your career evolution/switch. Lots of opportunities to learn, explore and being creative.

Cons

Very centralized in Germany, it can give the feeling for other locations to be outsiders or even not being considered as a location the company is investing in. Depending on your location and your team, better being prepared to have calls really very early or very late most likely on a daily basis, even as an individual contributor.
