Pros

SAP is full of really bright and ambitious people. It sets ambitious targets for itself and it's people. If you can survive in SAP, you can probably work in any company in IT. It is so large that it's very unlikely to be taken over, which makes it a stable environment in that sense. Perks vary from ok to excellent, depending on which country you are based. Company culture is moving from it's original German to a more American type of culture.

Cons

Tends to manage everyone and everything by metrics. Employee satisfaction ratings have been falling in recent years - the company is clearly trying to do something about that at the top level, with a lot of talk about work/life balance. However, this doesn't always transfer into reality in the field, where constant revenue pressures make that difficult to achieve. Career opportunities definitely exist, but job vacancies aren't always advertised internally' there doesn't seem to be 100% transparency to allow people to apply for internal promotions when available.

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.
