Pros

- Benefit of large international tech firm - Career opportunities - The "pros" have taken a turn for the worst as most things that were once a "Pro" like working for an agile, innovative company that feels like a small business has all been washed down the drain.

Cons

- Salaries aren't competitive (you'll make way more at another Seattle tech firm) - The wrong people are in the wrong positions; leaders have Sr. Director roles who should not be Sr. Directors; people who have never done marketing before are "Sr. Marketing Managers" -- titles are sort of a joke. - Innovation is lacking; the company is just trying to keep up with application stability so there isn't time for innovation - Marketing / sales lacks connected scaleable processes; everything will change person by person; inability to function as a team; lots of cooks in the kitchen; death by committee with a lack of leadership - Go work for SAP directly and spare yourself the pain of Concur - Top talent has been leaving consistently for some time now and we are stuck with mediocrity; due to Concur's low market salaries, we can't hire top people to back fill positions leaving you with someone less capable than before. - Top marketing leadership at Concur needs a shakeup

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.
