Pros

They let me work from home sometimes.

Cons

I had two managers who would regularly corner me in unscheduled meetings and verbally berate me for long stretches of time. They also gaslighted me by lying about the content of these conversations to my face in subsequent encounters. They ignored filling important positions and instead opted to use the headcount to secure jobs for their personal friends. They consistently put pressure on me to quit, despite me doing everything asked of me. When I brought it to the attention of HR, they said plainly that they would always side with management. It was by far the most toxic work environment I've ever been a part of, and you should not work here.

Pros

Large product set that can be sold into many vertical markets.

Cons

It All Depends....on who you are working for, what group and if you don't see your job change every year do the continuous reorganizations. If you want the work/life balance most o us do that's fine....just be prepared to party with the key management folks weekly or you will be on the outside looking in due to the high level of office politics. Products are very expensive and many often wonder it they are worth it. Many companies have spent millions on SAP software; have they received the ROI/Benefits promised? Perhaps some have but many have not. Many other choices out there with similar functionality for a fraction if the cost. SHOP AROUND!!! And if your company somehow gets out of compliance with the terms of your agreement the SAP software compliance police will be out to get you every quarter/year. And you don't want to have that discussion!

Pros

- Silicon Valley Next Talent (SVNT) Program: SVNT is a highly competitive rotational program and career accelerator within the products and innovation organization at SAP. The cool thing is that you can rotate on multiple SAP teams within the first year. At the end you may select the best fit based on mutually benefits. Therefore, you may develop a big picture mindset about SAP, while contributing your strengths on many impactful product features that are using by the world's most successful businesses. I think this unique program would be the best choice for all new graduates to consider. - Application Process: The review below is based on overall recruiting process of Silicon Valley Next Talent Program. The whole process took about one month (starting from the time that my resume was accepted and I submitted the survey form). The recruiter is pretty helpful and responsive with interview arrangements as well as status updates. The interview process has several rounds. The first round is talking your background with the recruiter. I learned about the recruiting process and what to expect after joining SVNT program. After that the second round interview is with the SVNT program manager, in which many behavioral questions were asked. I enjoyed the conversation a lot and found that the core values and team culture at SAP would be the perfect fit for me. I also felt connected with the program manager when I shared insights about my experiences and lessons learned. The third and fourth rounds are technical interviews with SAP experts in my field. The format and questions were similar to typical technical interviews with other large tech companies. One thing stood out was that all interviewers were super passionate about their work and shared many great things about working at SAP. These conversations really helped me to develop a better understanding about the benefits of SVNT program and I then decided to accept the offer from SAP instead of some other top companies.

Cons

The overall recruiting and on-boarding process in quite smooth and many detailed guidance is provided. I think the SVNT program at SAP is one of the best recruiting process I had ever experienced.
