Pros

Challenging, interesting work, with plenty of job mobility. Everyone changes jobs internally every couple of years, and that's accepted. As a whole, my coworkers are smart, industrious, and collaborative. They are genuinely nice. Even the jerks are nice compared to some of the yo-yo's I've worked with in other companies. The hours are very manageable, and it's possible to work 40 hours and have time for a real life outside the office. FT employees appreciate the perks like a free gym, subsidized lunch, on-site Starbucks, and employee parties and family days.

Cons

There's a lot of fat here. The marketing organization in particular has a lot, and I wonder how they keep their jobs given how many airy ideas they have without results to show for it. I don't think most of them realize how good they have it here, since it's been so long since they've had layoffs, so they can be a bit complacent. Many people work remotely, which can be a good or bad thing, depending on your work style and perspective. It can be very bureaucratic. A simple task can be routed to five different people before you finally find the person who can get it done. Finally, it is a matrix organization, so sometimes you feel like you're herding cats.

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.
