In my years at SAP I loved it, great work, new products, they do push that they are the 'Innovation Company' but they lack an innovation strategy, they are so far behind their competitors in many regards. HANA was a blip and put them ahead but I left because I wanted to innovate with my customers and SAP was too slow. The amount of re-organisations that happen, change is good but I always felt change at SAP put everyone 6 months back. You get pigeonholed at SAP, if you come in with a specific skillset, trying to move to other places and technologies is hard, Advancement is a challenge as well, unless you are very political. Once you get into management, you then just become a manager and you become stagnant. You don't have the autonomy that you get in other fast paced organisations.
