Pros

Extremely flexible schedule works really well for people with young families. Good compensation, excellent benefits. Best of both worlds--European approach to employment (job relatively secure), American approach to being an employee (less structure).

Cons

Excessive politics and way too many turf wars. Probably inevitable for a large company, but still hampers productivity and can be demotivating. Strategic direction changes every 6 months.

Pros

I really liked my role at SAP. After being a cloud Customer Success Manager supporting strategic clients for several years, I moved into a group doing digital customer outreach including producing newsletters, release enablement, webcasts, documentation, event registrations, etc. Salary and bonuses were good, no complaints there.

Cons

No real cons for the job that I was in, except that our group was eliminated by the corporate restructuring and reduction in workforce in North America in 2025. I would have loved to stay but unfortunately we probably showed up on a restructuring spreadsheet somewhere and it was determined that our services were no longer needed. We off-boarded most of our work to other existing employees (who already had full time jobs), which felt unfair to them, but that is how it shook out.
