Not so "Success" Factors.
Not so "Success" Factors.
-
SAP brand - Access to SAP, SAP technologies, learn from across SAP and its subsidiaries. All employees have the ability to move within SAP and be part of a new team.
-
Ability to work on your own schedule and also flexibility to work from home.
-
Good employee benefits.
-
Great people to work with; everyone is really helpful and supportive.
-
Job is highly stable and reliable.
-
Great learning opportunity initially.
- The pay is sub-standard compared to the Bay Area's standard salary for a software developer.
- Most importantly, the immigration policies are really bad. SuccessFactors and SAP are not very employee-friendly with respect to immigration.
- Too many changes in upper management have caused a lack of direction for the company's vision. All the good people have left the company.
- Managers and directors are fairly new and need extensive training.
- There's no growth in the long run. If you are an entry-level developer/QA, there is absolutely no growth here. Everyone on the team is a lead/manager/director. Most of the development work is done from outside the USA, from low-cost centers. So don't settle at SuccessFactors; move to the SAP umbrella, such as SAP, Ariba, Concur, or Lumira, etc.
-
Be reasonable! Pay according to the standards of the Bay Area. Employees have families!
-
Please learn from other companies about immigration and HR policies. These really need reform at SAP and SuccessFactors. Try to retain your experienced employees in the long run! At least, try!
-
Train your new managers and new directors.
