Pros

Stable customer base and growth. Free lunches. No hire and fire policy. Good work life balance

Cons

Absolutely no career growth. Managers dont promote hard working individuals. Slow HR processes There is no salary correction for existing employees who came in at lower pay. Some are lucky to get good salaries. Management is like mafia. Lot of empire building Management does not care about building good products and selling. Its more about their own personal agenda. Too many layers of middle management Acquired companies such as Ariba and Successfactors have ego problems and do not want to hire candidates within SAP Slow decision making by management There is no accountability

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.
