Pros

Good 401k matching.

Good place to learn about enterprise software.

Cons

Significantly low pay compared to other jobs in the Bay Area. No clear company agenda. Too many managers, which create a huge disconnect. Many managers are unqualified, and upper management only cares about numbers, not results. Trust in management is super low, especially after the huge layoffs in March. The tech stack is old and becoming obsolete. Progress is slow. Unless you’re planning on retiring soon, staying for more than a few years at SAP is career suicide. That’s a reason why many employees have a hard time leaving the company. Those who do end up leaving for MS, Salesforce, Workday, etc.

Advice to Management

Be more transparent. Hopefully, that can help in improving the low trust in management that employees have.
