Pros

In general, SAP America is a good work place that takes care of its employees and provides good benefits. The HR policies are good, as long as they are not bent by the sub-groups in the organization.

Cons

The management has a very technical background(basis) and does not understand the complexities of business processes. As a result, overemphasis is given on taking traces, and unnecessary technical analysis during services. Service reports have a rigid structure, and requires collection of data that is very very manual intensive and documentation/processes that do not make any sense. As a result, the consultant is tied up with the nitty gritties of the reporting instead of providing value. No investment on training, improving knowledge in areas that are not technical.

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.
