Pros

If you love IT and to be aware of the lastest and greatest techologies that will definie the way we do business, you will enjoy be part of the SAP family. It's a great school where who can learn new things if you get lucky to be in the right project or team. Some projects you have to go abroad but others are essencially remote. Work-life balance is usually good but it mainly depends on the project where you are in. You have the chance to take by free some SAP certifications that are highly appreciated by the market.

Cons

Almost everything else... The first thing to fix is increase the poor wages that exists in the SDC. The only way to earn more money is to have a project where you can work on-site. And these kind of projects are decreasing day after day. Concerning the career progress, it is very slow and if you enter into a uninteresting project sometimes its very difficult to get out of it at it at less it starts to go in the wrong way... Regarding the management team, it also depends who is your manager. They are very goal-oriented and they make everything to achieve those goals. They usually listen the team complains but usually they reply saying that they don't have power to change - or they don't want to - and this harmly affects the trust and transparent between the consultant's teams and the management. If you are one of the entrants, usually you have to pay a very high fee in order to get out to move to another company. So if you get upset and you don't like your job, you have to remain in the company unless you pay a lot - really, a lot! Ah, and to finish...and that one is embarassing: there is one breakout area without forks available to everyone that eats there. Forks should be expensive these days...

Pros

Great solutions, leading position in a high-demand market, lots of R&D spend via SAP

Cons

SAP has completely integrated SuccessFactors into their corporate culture and it's been a challenging transition to say the least. The management team has almost been completely turned over and filled with SAP suits. No one hesitates to throw someone else under the bus in order to look good or deflect negativity from executives. Corporate culture barely exists any longer. SAP can't get out of their own way.
