Pros

Stable customer base and growth. Free lunches. No hire and fire policy. Good work-life balance.

Cons

Absolutely no career growth.

Managers don't promote hard-working individuals.

Slow HR processes.

There is no salary correction for existing employees who came in at lower pay. Some are lucky to get good salaries.

Management is like a mafia. Lot of empire building.

Management does not care about building good products and selling. It's more about their own personal agenda.

Too many layers of middle management.

Acquired companies such as Ariba and Successfactors have ego problems and do not want to hire candidates within SAP.

Slow decision-making by management.

There is no accountability.

Advice to Management

Get rid of managers who have not delivered anything. Bad managers are destroying this company and its culture.

Use a fair approach to promote employees. Give opportunities for others to progress.
