Pros

Flexible work from home. Generally smart people at least in the sales department.. unless they all leave after this year.

Cons

After several years in sales at SAP - this used to be one of the top companies in big tech to work for. In effort of slashing the cost of sales, they have completely eliminated the perks and compensation for being in sales at SAP. Trying to figure out how commissions works is a full time job and science project. Trying to hold SAP accountable for actually paying commissions in full has become impossible. Quotas have doubled while territories shrunk, accelerators removed, and other BS policies like holding back 30% of commissions because of adoption factors which are always out of your control. This year, I expect to make less than half the total cash than what i used to make at SAP, and I don't see that changing in '26. Our best people are leaving. Our recent internal employee satisfaction survey scored as low as 1/10 or 2/10 in many areas such as "would you recommend SAP as a place to work".

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.
