Pros

free lunch, trainings , possibility to travel at the customers, most of the peaople have good experience and you can find some excellent guys who knows technology but are very rare to find, sometimes you get to work from home

Cons

work life ballance is pretty bad, work 90% of the time more then 9h each day even more - come back home tired; managment takes decission real slow and is a long process for tiny things, you spend a lot of time in the ISP internal system to enter your time and expences and is a long process, a lot of wasted time on administrative tasks that you do on your own time - that time is lost instead of learning something new or do the job; salary is not that good is averange or bellow market; promotions are rare;per diem is small in some counties - it needs to be adjusted

Pros

First hand and internal information on new SAP products and best practices. Opportunities to work with many talented colleagues and sometimes developers who wrote the original code. Internal transfers between departments/groups. International opportunities. Great bonuses if you excceed your utilization target. Brand recognition. Very good health benefits.

Cons

Internal politics as in most other big companies. Knowledge sharing approach is very inefficient especially between departments. Personal experiences can vary greatly depending on your manager. I lost the best manager I ever had during the 2009 reorganization and I couldn't understand the rationale behind the decision. It is also very difficult to break into a new area of expertise. Demand for SAP Consultants is declining due to high billing rates. Internal competition between regions, departments, and lower cost subsidiaries.

Pros

People are great, very good atmosphere. Everyone is willing to help,good collaboration between various international subsidiaries. Managers care about life/work balance, taking time off is never a problem. Work, for the most part, is engaging and interesting.

Cons

Very hard to get promoted; lots of internal politics. HR seems to be incompetent in some areas.
