Pros

Great compensation package - very high commission for software sales. Huge brand advertising and PR machine - real door opener. Customers CV is wrapped up in SAP Brand and they support - almost slavishly. Good events and great Philly office.

Cons

Worked like a dog, far too inwardly focussed - as if Bill McDermott is a god, not just going for CEO but the Papacy. Huge number of internal reports and spreadhseets - huge CYA meetings and reporting. Shamed/Embrassed by poor customer value delivered for software and esp support. Now a hire and fire organisation - do not expect a career in sales at SAP ,just work your butt off, hang on and enjoy the ride.

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.
