Pluspunten

* Very relaxed work culture. * Work from home and generous leave policy. * Approachable and friendly managers. * No micromanagement. * Free food & shuttle facility. * Could be financially rewarding once strong expertise in SAP related technologies is obtained.

Minpunten

* Work (ABAP) is mind numbingly boring! Majority of the work deals with the maintenance of legacy code written in a legacy language. You will spend 90% of your time in maintenance, fixing silly bugs in poorly written code handed over to you, rather than develop serious features. * The proprietary development and testing tools used here are terrible compared to the open source alternatives available. * Slow pace of work. * Quality of people is not great (although there are exceptions); a lot of people know just enough for their day to day work. This can be rephrased as the lack of a strong engineering culture. * Staying too long with ABAP can make you virtually skill less and unemployable as a developer outside the SAP domain. This is mainly due to the intellectual stagnation one undergoes working with ABAP. All in all, this company is far from ideal if you are a passionate technologist, but if you like to settle into a low pressure job while drawing a reasonable salary and decent perks, this seems to be the perfect place.

Pluspunten

The people at SAP are genuinely nice, and the culture is generally supportive. The work-life balance is good to an extent, but when you're busy, you're BUSY. SAP is highly complex so expect to take a year to ramp up.

Minpunten

Only way to get a high salary is if you're hired externally. They do not reward employees who are loyal to the company. Closed opportunities often have to go through the Compensation Exception Committee, creating uncertainty around earnings. Prepare for constant change, whether that's solutions being removed from your sales bag, account shifts, territory realignments, or changing compensation policies. Quotas can be difficult to attain
