Pros

Free lunch is still a good perk. Beautiful and well-maintained campus. Some smart and helpful colleagues (though many are leaving).

Cons

SAP used to be known for work-life balance and a great culture. That’s completely changed. Managers now expect employees to work late into the night regularly. Unrealistic deadlines with no regard for personal time or burnout. Higher management is toxic, shows zero empathy, and promotes a fear-driven environment. Promotions are highly biased — friends of managers get the spotlight, better projects, and quick promotions, while others are ignored regardless of effort or performance.

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.
