COE - great flexibility - awful salary

Senior support engineer

Recommend

CEO approval

Business Outlook

Pros

flexibility, (mostly) relaxed working environment, free lunch, zero discrimination Can grow quickly if you play your cards right. Work from home. Great pension scheme

Cons

Terrible salary vs Irish market and even internally in global SAP environment. Places with lower cost of living paid more for exact same role(internal). New joiners on high salaries than people there 2 years. No consideration for cost of living in Ireland given to salary increases. Team managers try to help but are given terrible budgets for increases. Pension is great, but not when you're 25 and making around 60% of your peers you graduated with.

Excellent learning, good location, but pay does not match pressure

Support engineer coe

Recommend

CEO approval

Business Outlook

Pros

You will work with brilliant minds. In the first 18 months you will receive a lot of training. CoE and Message Solving promote on the basis of merit, and nothing else. Generally supportive culture amongst employees. Middle Management are hardworking, and put in long hours. Located on SW edge of Dublin. Rent is reasonable, in the area, but availaibility is not existent. It is healthier and cheaper than much of the rest of Dublin. Excellent opportunities for growth and development. You will learn a lot in five years. But it can be very hard work. Your background does not count, only your intellect and workrate - in the CoE, and Message solving. In the other departments, I do not know.

Cons

Pay. SAP IRL is no longer in the top tier of "Great places to work" because of pay, and pressure in the two largest units. This is usually a predictor of a staff losses in the following year. Promoting staff to promotion levels, and then not paying them the minimum salary levels for that promotion level. In 2018, the average pay rise in the CoE was 2.9%. The increase in pressure in the 12 months previous was much greater than this number. In the CoE, training is classified as Non-Productive. This is a first for a German company.
