Pros

Once you learn enough to get past the media hype, you realize that SAP is the true leader in its space with an absolute 'A' list of customers. SAP attracts very talented employees who you will learn from and who will cause you to be your best. The extended SAP community, including customers and technology partners, is a consistently stimulating envrionment to work within. SAP's new leadership are improving the areas of SAP culture that do need attention and these positive changes are already obvious to everyone.

Cons

SAP is a very intense company with a lot of moving parts. It can be unwieldy and daunting for a new employee. But once you acclimate to the culture, you're fine and you can easily work within it. Also, the nature of the company's business is that your job does not have a start and finish each day. It is a whatever-it-takes, high performance culture - this demands a 'workstyle' (v. lifestyle) with a lot of mental energy steadily expended on your work activities.

Pros

The people at SAP are genuinely nice, and the culture is generally supportive. The work-life balance is good to an extent, but when you're busy, you're BUSY. SAP is highly complex so expect to take a year to ramp up.

Cons

Only way to get a high salary is if you're hired externally. They do not reward employees who are loyal to the company. Closed opportunities often have to go through the Compensation Exception Committee, creating uncertainty around earnings. Prepare for constant change, whether that's solutions being removed from your sales bag, account shifts, territory realignments, or changing compensation policies. Quotas can be difficult to attain
