Pros

You'll get your salary on time

Cons

No work life balance. The "Pledge to Flex" campaign is a cynical way to force people back to the offices. The name is misleading – it's not SAP that will have to flex, it's you. It's almost cliche at this point and there are TikToks making fun of companies like SAP. In 2020 it was home office full steam ahead. This year, together with New Year wishes, every employee learned they will have to go physically to the office, no matter if they're remote workers, if there are any other team members in their location. In a very long FAQ basically every option was answered with "We're sorry this sucks for you. Anyway, 3 days in the office or else", but of course in a politically correct way. Another proof of SAP's anti-flexibility is when I asked if I could move my position to my home country where I would work remotely. The answer was no, because it doesn't bring benefit to SAP and it's too much bother (really, one of the reasons for rejection was that it requires too much effort with paperwork and taxes. Way to appreciate a hardworking employee of 6+ years! ;)) SAP wants you to think you're one big family, but don't be fooled. SAP is not your friend and will do anything as long as it benefits the company and doesn't break the law (I mean, hopefully).

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.
