Great company!
Director (Current Employee) – Canada – 7 March 2019
It's a great company, there aren't a lot of levels between individual contributors and the board which makes the communication flow very quickly and organically. One of the caveats from SAP it's their challenges to run simple and operate on an agile way. The benefits are great specially the SAP Shares program.
Pros
Great offices, good management, lot's of growth opportunities
Cons
Complexity, speed/agility to implement changes and politics at executive level
World-class products, lots of complexity
User Assistance Team Leader/Information Architect (Current Employee) – Waterloo, ON – 7 March 2019
Pros:
- World-class technology.
- Great opportunities for advancement for self-motivated employees.
- Work with experts on complex software development.
- Great infrastructure and tools to get the work done.
- Room for "out-of-the-box thinking" and entrepreneurial spirit.
- Great support for diversity and equality.
- Great benefits (health, life, RRSP-matching plans).
- Workplace culture is designed to be open and honest.
- Subsidized lunch program, free beverages.
Cons:
- Much of the decision-making is done in Walldorf, Germany (HQ). North America sometimes treated like an orphan/afterthought.
- Products can be very complex and not user-friendly.
- Many layers and some silos make decision-making onerous and overly bureaucratic. Sometimes the left hand doesn't know what the right hand is doing.
- German unionized employees often seem to be disgruntled and obstreperous, causing a drag on innovation and nimbleness.
- Politics and turf wars sometimes do come into play.
- 90,000 employees sometimes means you don't know where to look to find answers to business problems (needle in a haystack).

Amazing place to work
Sr. Specialist sales (Former Employee) – Calgary, AB – 4 March 2019
There is clear vision and a very sound management style which makes working a great experience. Bosses are mentors and enablers to success and very few companies have such perks and benefits.

Software Developer (Former Employee) – Waterloo, ON – 26 July 2018
SAP is a great company with growing revenue every year. When I worked there as an intern, people in my team were very friendly and helpful. We had few meetings so that people can concentrate on the work.
Great place to work
Technical Support Consultant II (Current Employee) – Vancouver, BC – 13 June 2018
Not enough opportunity to learn other jobs within the company.
great benefits.
when applying for internal jobs, they tend to consider hiring external applicants, than training current employees for the job.

Expertise all around
Project Manager (Contractor) (Current Employee) – Toronto, ON – 25 April 2018
A very corporate environment, as to be expected with such a massive company. The timing and nature of my role ended up being less secure than usual due to major changes within the company. A very balanced work/life culture and always fantastic to be surrounded by expertise.
Fun place to work.
Software Tester (Former Employee) – Toronto, ON – 1 April 2018
