Pros

Salary is ok, benefits are ok, work life balance is great (depends on which group you're in)

Cons

Everything moves very slowly. Developers are not given proper workstations, we're basically given old refurbished laptops that are at least 5 years old. Managers are not technically savvy and don't really understand what the developers are doing.

Pros

The people at SAP are genuinely nice, and the culture is generally supportive. The work-life balance is good to an extent, but when you're busy, you're BUSY. SAP is highly complex so expect to take a year to ramp up.

Cons

Only way to get a high salary is if you're hired externally. They do not reward employees who are loyal to the company. Closed opportunities often have to go through the Compensation Exception Committee, creating uncertainty around earnings. Prepare for constant change, whether that's solutions being removed from your sales bag, account shifts, territory realignments, or changing compensation policies. Quotas can be difficult to attain
