People on Visas cannot grow here

Pros

It's a great company for someone who is not looking for an accelarated growth path or not dependent on a visa to work.

Cons

You have to maintain relationships for promotions, it's not really based on performance, if someone you know rises to the top, they will take you with you. Most of the job positions are filled without any interview or screening, so you better focus on your networking skills than hard or smart working. During the COVID, they came up with strange restrictions which require approvals at all levels, for employees that want to move to another country due to visa restrictions, company process requires board approval, that's for less than 10,000 USD expense, talk about running simple. If you establish a process where nobody but board can take decisions for expenses of such low dollar value, you just don't have trust in your L3/L4/L5 leadership team, Global mobility team in SAP acts like government office (no offense to anyone), you have to constantly beg them to get your response. You will be constantly stifled by process bureacracies and following the chain of command blessings to get simple things done, everything is strictly hierarchical.
