Overall good but you can be typecast in a particular role which can make it hard to move up without moving out. - Director SAP Employee Review

Pros

Amazing sales force with good products - especially HANA. Very customer focused. Managed very well with good senior management. Good work environment. Can also get a good work-life balance ... but you still have to contribute.

Cons

Can be almost impossible to get your ideas properly considered unless you know the right people, but then many large companies are like this. Although getting better, many people still seem to think that SAP is the center of the software universe which means opportunities are missed - see Advice to Management.

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
