SAP still has not figured it out

Pros

There is training and certification programs to get expertise to use in the next job. People can be okay with the right manager. Easy going if you just want a paycheck and do what you are told. Some mentoring but it is hit and miss.

Cons

Promotions are based on a drinking social culture. German for German speakers if you want to be in the upper management. A bias against US management. Passive aggressive people as a management style. Older people not welcome. It is not a place of continuous improvement so identifying issues to make the place better will be frowned upon by colleagues who have to do work and their management. They hide problems rather than fix them. They will apologize to clients and that is it. They are behind the curve on every aspect that are important to the industry. They are just getting traction on Cloud computing. Consulting is left to the integrators ceding revenue to them and, more importantly, SAP is not learning the install problems of their own product. SAP is always following others rather than leading and will never catchup to others. Eventually, it will lose ground to competitors.

Pros

Salary reasonable but in line

Cons

Very Siloed organization. No team work. Question the sales, marketing, value engineering being honest in describing real capabilities out of the box (this is why they spend so much money in law suits)

Pros

Solid benefits. A culture that tends to respect work/life boundaries. Salary and bonus structuring tends to be good when you join, then it's difficult to get good raises year to year.

Cons

It's a geared toward the interests and careers of German employees. During recent restructuring, all German employees were protected from layoff, so the US side took the hit. The restructuring is not over, and so U.S.-based people should consider staying away.
