Pros

SAP delivers Technology state-of-art tools and aides to its employees; it has a consistent and permanent training program that allows to keep professionals updated, Human Resources Dept. encourages Work and Life balance; the work environment is respectful

Cons

Poor career advancement blocked by the direct managers despite the professional growth supported by the training program, salary raising politics not consistent over the years (e.g. sometimes you can not cope up with yearly inflation); too bureaucratic and heavy internal procedures; bonuses plan decreasing year by year; the certification requests are to stressful to manage and the certification tests do not measure the real knowledge and experience because they are only focused on the memorizing factor

Pros

Market leadership in the enterprise software space, a competent management team, an open culture (at least within SAP Global Marketing which is based primarily in New York and Palo Alto,) a continuous desire to do better. A very distinct strategy compared to the primary competitor - something that has been successful thus far. On average folks are very sharp - a lot of ex-management consultants from top strategy firms such as McKinsey, BCG, Booz. Also, top of the line compensation, some generous benefits e.g. free lunch, soda, water, coffee. Overall agree with company strategy, its focus on employees and customer value creation.

Cons

Large organization that can feel difficult to navigate. Also, bureaucratic for a tech company though not sure how it compares with other organizations with 50,000+ employees.

Flexible work/live arrangements. Truly global. Diverse employee base. Reliable cash compensation.

Cons

Advancement in grade can be a bit slow. Advancement in responsibilities can be even slower. Very process oriented.
