Pros

Some great team members especially in SAP consultancy team. Good salary large organization if you wished to move around

Cons

Targets are irrelevant to the market potential and needs. So many re-structuring due to company buyouts, so one day you have a sales bag and the next day it has changed so as your target. This breaths bullying mechanism within the organization so the middle management can achieve their targets. I was bullied by two managers as I stood my ground for bringing value to customers rather than just closing a deal, they bullied me to the point that I was forced to resign, even though I met the target numbers by 80%. Both of the manager's intentions were to cut cost so they can hire in another region as I had a healthy pipeline built and inside sales could close the deals. They even got promotion from Australia to APAC. This experience brought major depression to me and eventually I had my first Lupus attack. I will never forget how these managers behaved, HR and others knew about it and no one did anything. Terrible culture and I hope karma catch the guys on top, as this should never happen to any females at work.

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
