Pros

- Free food and transport - 4 day work from home policy - Makes you so lazy that you will not look out for any other opportunity!

Cons

- Managers work on pre conceived notions. - Managers take opinion from your co workers and act upon it instead of making their own judgement -lack or no travel opportunities -not a good place to start ur career if u r looking for good work. -salary very poor when compared to other sap subsidiaries -bad feedback about managers to senior management will have no effect. -Management prevents employees from going on site for the fear of attrition. -No direct customer interaction. -Opportunities are given to the same people over and over again and again.

Pros

Diverse employee population Some exceptionaly smart people Autonomy, control over your own career path 4-day work week for consultants Great benefits Manager approves all vacation requests without question

Cons

Expectation of "giving back" to the company by helping to build a practice in your field, along with other administrative activities. This is not a bad thing, however these activities are often on your own time outside of travelling to and working at your client sites. Sometimes it can be difficult to maintain an appropriate work/life balance. May or may not get a manager who cares about developing you as a consultant vs. just keeping you staffed. Lately there are fewer long-term projects available. If you don't stay billable, you are under scrutiny by management and risk losing your job if you cannot find work after a few months. SAP has the highest consulting bill rates around, and it doesn't seem like we are adjusting to the changing economy. Instead, consultants are increasingly expected to do more sales-related type of activities to push license revenue.

Pros

Extremely flexible schedule works really well for people with young families. Good compensation, excellent benefits. Best of both worlds--European approach to employment (job relatively secure), American approach to being an employee (less structure).

Cons

Excessive politics and way too many turf wars. Probably inevitable for a large company, but still hampers productivity and can be demotivating. Strategic direction changes every 6 months.
