Pros

I have no pros for this company

Cons

My interview was on programming with development team which i passed but after i had an interview with manager which was like a "psychological test" where he decided i should go to the maintenance team instead just because "i'm good at speaking" and i had no choice even i was there for the development team. The salary was very small for students and to receive the position takes just very long like 2 years My mentor was very rude and unfriendly and did not communicate with others about the learning plan which he established and I was held accountable for it Many students were excluded one by one (in time i was working there) for reasons like: "you're not communicative enough" or " you don't have a very good relationship with your mentor" , "you're stubborn" etc. The newcomers had to learn theoretical things and we were listened to every day like at school if we learned them and we had to make presentations every week where a lot of pressure was put, they asked us practical questions (although we didn't do those things practically) and they were never satisfied( especially the manager). The most of the colleagues were unfriendly and did not have the curiosity to meet the new ones. A lot of stress and pressure for little money

People on Visas cannot grow here

Pros

It's a great company for someone who is not looking for an accelarated growth path or not dependent on a visa to work.

Cons

You have to maintain relationships for promotions, it's not really based on performance, if someone you know rises to the top, they will take you with you. Most of the job positions are filled without any interview or screening, so you better focus on your networking skills than hard or smart working. During the COVID, they came up with strange restrictions which require approvals at all levels, for employees that want to move to another country due to visa restrictions, company process requires board approval, that's for less than 10,000 USD expense, talk about running simple. If you establish a process where nobody but board can take decisions for expenses of such low dollar value, you just don't have trust in your L3/L4/L5 leadership team, Global mobility team in SAP acts like government office (no offense to anyone), you have to constantly beg them to get your response. You will be constantly stifled by process bureacracies and following the chain of command blessings to get simple things done, everything is strictly hierarchical.
