Pros

Flexible work options are available, with working from home an option in many cases. There is lots of room to learn and many resources available to employees.

Cons

A lot of acquisitions mean restructuring, which means your position can turn out to be not what you signed up for. Older methodologies mean some of their new endeavors, e.g., mobile and cloud, can seem pretty antiquated compared to startup products. Compensation isn't great, and the culture isn't very relaxed outside of SAP Labs.

Advice to Management

Focus on bringing in new blood (university hires), smaller teams that focus on specific aspects of a solution, and read what the blogs are saying about HANA and mobile products.
