Pros

Generally good environment, free of many of the big issues from other companies. We have sane work hours, management is generally OK ( and sometimes good). Proven job security.

Cons

For technologists, might be a career dead end, as many of the technologies used are proprietary (this is less severe in a few teams). Has the problems of large organizations, like massive lack of agility and decisions taken high above in the corporate hierarchy often habing huge impact on your daily job.

Pros

The people at SAP are genuinely nice, and the culture is generally supportive. The work-life balance is good to an extent, but when you're busy, you're BUSY. SAP is highly complex so expect to take a year to ramp up.

Cons

Only way to get a high salary is if you're hired externally. They do not reward employees who are loyal to the company. Closed opportunities often have to go through the Compensation Exception Committee, creating uncertainty around earnings. Prepare for constant change, whether that's solutions being removed from your sales bag, account shifts, territory realignments, or changing compensation policies. Quotas can be difficult to attain
