Pros

SAP was a good place to work in terms of the workplace environment. Many perks, like a gym, cafeteria, and a nice campus. They treated employees relatively well. Good salary and benefits, especially compared to others my age. Good philanthropic efforts.

Cons

Constant and annoying reorganization. Promoting from within, and unfair/biased treatment towards those who are very attractive and (usually) female. Some upper management and VP's have such an over-inflated ego, and nothing seems to be done about it when it is painfully obvious to so many people. There is definitely an upper echelon of management here who are in effect an "inside ring" of some corruption and although they try to pride themselves on transparency the truth is that they are anything but. Also an extreme amount of outsourcing/contracting to India, which makes it much more difficult to work productively on a local team.

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.
