Pros

The company used to be transparent, open, full of team work and spirit. The good ole days are gone.

Cons

SAP really took over the company culture to start 2014 and it has been a train wreck. There is no SF identity anymore. SAP is completely disconnected to SuccessFactors market needs, they have just been making the company more SAP like....but they could have stood to gain much more if they leveraged SF strengths more effectively.

Pros

They are very good at painting the vision and strategy for the company- if the compensation and rewards were in line, it would be highly motivating. It's difficult to find pros when the compensation is so out of line.

Cons

Was part of the Ariba acquisition in 2012, and now in early 2014 have been going through the compensation planning for the year. The company speaks about their philosophy of being open and fair about compensation, but they tried to hide all of their bands and pay grades from Ariba employees. They didn't do this very well, and it's now pretty widely known that the Ariba employees are paid well below the SAP salary bands, but SAP has no plans to rectify this. So, being a former Ariba employee means that you make a fraction of what your SAP counterparts make for the same level of work and responsibilities.

Pros

SAP pays well, provides generous benefits and has a valuable brand name.

Cons

SAP has lost its edge and is floundering in its efforts to reinvent itself to survive the rapid decline of the ERP market it once dominated. The company is handicapped by its own arrogance, rampant cronyism and ruthless culture. It rewards those that add no value but are masters of toeing the line and preserving the status quo.....and it punishes those that actually know what they're talking about and dare to speak up about changes needed for the company to succeed.
