Pros

Stable customer base and growth. Free lunches. No hire and fire policy. Good work life balance

Cons

Absolutely no career growth. Managers dont promote hard working individuals. Slow HR processes There is no salary correction for existing employees who came in at lower pay. Some are lucky to get good salaries. Management is like mafia. Lot of empire building Management does not care about building good products and selling. Its more about their own personal agenda. Too many layers of middle management Acquired companies such as Ariba and Successfactors have ego problems and do not want to hire candidates within SAP Slow decision making by management There is no accountability

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
