Pros

Over the last 13 years I have loved SAP. Colleagues always wanted to help, when CEO spoke you became proud. First Bill left then Hasso...

Cons

Up until last year, then when the first round of terminations happened hope and culture slowly became toxic. Terminations happened without any reason, seemed like people where just numbers to ensure Board got their bonus. This year board got a huge bonus and we had another round of termination. Managers had no say who got terminated, L1 who did not know individuals dictated the decision. People who worked with future projects where cut off due to lack of knowledge. AI is future, AI people got sacked nonetheless. SAP culture is dead and replaced by a culture of zombie and ignorance, except if you work in German HQ. Salary is purposely low. Recent rounds of termination happens without giving reason as to why, push down from leadership. Mandatory RTO isn't because of employee empowerment, more because of corporate state TAX implications. Employees are now just a number, culture is dead, aspirations to do more is dead.

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.
