August 17, 2020

Neutral ExperienceNo Offer

Process

I applied online through their career webpage.

I had a short call with the recruiter, after which we scheduled an hour-long interview with three engineers.

They asked me a lot of questions regarding my past projects and my roles in those projects.

During the interview, one of the interviewers told me that I could be a better match for another position. I thought that was the end of my interview process; however, I received an online coding test.

Questions

Bit manipulation
Network Flow (Ford-Fulkerson) related problem

Good place to work, but people take advantage

Software Engineer • Current Employee

Palo Alto, California, United States

Pros: Good executive management that cares about the employees. Management is transparent to its employees. There are a bunch of people in the company who want to take on challenges and want to make a difference in the industry. The CTO of the company is a good leader with qualities needed to make SAP competitive.

Cons: Even though SAP has a great deal of positive energy, there are many people in the company who take advantage of it. Layers of mid-level management do nothing but talk. I have seen many of them who have been here for years and do a lot of talking but deliver nothing useful to customers. The CTO and leadership have a vision, and SAP needs to cut all the layers of fat and create a flat hierarchy of engineers to deliver the vision.
