Pros

Good introduction into the cloud application industry. Exposure that can carry you in technology. Good benefits and 401k options. I credit my joys and industry niche to this company. Incredibly smart people with incredible skill sets from all parts of the world (wish it were noticed a bit more), great client interaction and analytical skill building. Its, hands down, one of the best learning environments for the industry.

Cons

Just as an FYI, this is totally dependent on your office location and department, also note that I mentioned it was a great LEARNING environment, meaning you'd hope not to stay in that spot forever. I have witnessed arbitrary movement not based on skill or performance. I have noticed nepotism, stagnation wrapped in a cloak of "new tasks". Expect to be asked to do more tasks as a dangling carrot and be given an excuse why the promise was not kept. Depending on both shift and team be prepared to never have the chance to take your company entitled PTO (but your manager can be gone every other week). Expect never to be provided expectations or kudos when you perform above and beyond. DO expect to be nit picked as knee jerk reactions to something unrelated to you, or something that is minuscule and not impacting bottom line or bigger picture . Basically, expect everything related to inexperienced management or toxic leadership habits.

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.
