Pros

Pay was excellent, benefits were good, flexibility in working remotely, good CEO. Had 6 bosses in 3 years.

Cons

No real structure or discipline in how things were done. So when results were not met, there would be a reorganization, usually every 6 months. We were an acquisition so after a few years in these reorganizations they systematically moved out the people who knew about the business and brought in the SAP lifers. Then they moved everyone under them on and brought in their buddies. The new senior managers would make arbitrary decisions on who the managers under them should be. It happened at least 6 times in 3 years. The people working for the managers were way more qualified for the jobs, but not one of those positions were ever advertised. The management style was abusive, highly political, and no interest in developing employees.

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
