Pros

A diversified workplace where people work and play hard. A few sections within SAP are protected enclaves which provides job security and proper work-life balance.

Cons

Changes at the management level recently have caused an overhaul and the politics have trickled down to the "masses" Also, try navigating your way through the myraid of people who are working on the same thing as you and then fight for your share of the pie. There are basically too many people to go round, too little work to do. And career hungry junior level employees need to be extremely patient, allowing yourself to age and grow old within the company before getting anywhere as the majority of the senior employees will more or less starve you of any opportunity to proceed further.

Pros

At SAP the benefits are stellar and significantly higher than of any other technology corporation. The work/life balance is also what you make of it. Most of my colleagues work a 9 to 5 shift, but others work 8-10. The sky's the limit. The beauty though, is you can rest assured that your efforts will not go unnoticed. Its a company that always rewards hard workers and annually (and quarterly) reviews each and every employee to ensure that you are continually working with nothing but the best. This not only guarantees that you will always be working with smart minds, but also that you yourself will be provided with an opportunity to grow from your peers.

Cons

One of the largest problems at SAP, which is of no exception to any corporation over 50,000 people, is the incredible amount of red tape one must go through to push forward specific initiatives - regardless of how pressing. It is truly a German company that is not only obsessed with efficiency and achieving true economies of scale (by staffing in such a way that boxes people in to specializing in one specific function rather than a solid cross-functional understanding of the departments in which they work), but also in that one must know someone to achieve a promotion with the organization.

Pros

I have work in SAP field (user site) for more than 6 years so it's good for me to join SAP which I could learn more SAP knowledge and develop my personal skill. Also I could have chance to understand more different industrials.

Cons

1. I think SAP is too focus on the number of revenue. People are focus to get sales but on other hand, we might ignore the core of our competition such as industrial experience, customer requirement, customer support... 2. The long term people development is not very well. I can't see a solid career path in SAP.
