Pros

Great benefits - probably some of the most comprehensive in the local Vancouver tech market

Cons

Hard to ever get noticed. Middle and senior management fails at how to grow people and give opportunities to everyone to be great. Top talent is all based on how much you butter up to managers and one up one another. New local VP of development is cutthroat and only ever cares about you if you can crunch out lines of code. Local site's mission is working on a product that may barely make a splash. All a bunch of hand waving and it's years late.

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
