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

I really liked my role at SAP. After being a cloud Customer Success Manager supporting strategic clients for several years, I moved into a group doing digital customer outreach including producing newsletters, release enablement, webcasts, documentation, event registrations, etc. Salary and bonuses were good, no complaints there.

Cons

No real cons for the job that I was in, except that our group was eliminated by the corporate restructuring and reduction in workforce in North America in 2025. I would have loved to stay but unfortunately we probably showed up on a restructuring spreadsheet somewhere and it was determined that our services were no longer needed. We off-boarded most of our work to other existing employees (who already had full time jobs), which felt unfair to them, but that is how it shook out.
