SAP

The company has come up with a large number of initiatives to accommodate different lifestyles, to be flexible, and to be inclusive. Equality is a huge topic, and even though we are not there yet, we are getting closer to a top-class company in this respect.

With the COVID-19 situation, we had no redundancies, and people were at the heart of all initiatives.

HR policies are complex and not retention-oriented. This means that to have a salary increase or a promotion, it will be easier to leave the company and come back, so you are not held back by internal HR policies. Therefore, loyalty doesn't pay off. SAP can have an open position with the budget approved for it, but if you are internal, it is more likely that you won't get that package that an external candidate will get, solely because increases of more than x% are not allowed.

Review HR policies, as talent retention is becoming quite difficult. People are more and more leaving the company to return later with a better package.
