Pluspunten

Company's Reputation - Identified as one of the most sort-after companies to work for by employees. Company's Vision - The CEO and team seem to be doing good. RSUs, Benefits - Gives a reason to make merry on every anniversary.

Minpunten

Weak Engineering Leadership (RESTON Office) - A long-time supervisor in particular, who lets his team defend for themselves - Instills an insecure, and untrustworthy work environment - Uses different strokes for different folks, groups, and favoritism at its peak - Forget defending, he nitpicks his own team members on anyone's complaint without evaluating the situation - Apparently, the more one grows, the more insecure the supervisor becomes here - Steals team's work for his self-promotion, even applauded by higher-ups - Shamelessly asks for a 10 rating in team meetings and resorts to micro-managing if he suspects anyone's not obliging. Poor Engineering Work Culture (RESTON Office) - Long-time arrogant Tech leads and Architects use bullying tactics on team members (thanks to spineless supervisors) - Teams remain constantly pressurized by staying defensive and collecting proof to save face - Almost a full-fledged Asian work culture in play but with special treatment for Westerners, who are far and in between. Old Engineering Technologies (RESTON Office) - Outdated models in play, very slow to embrace the latest and the greatest - No transparency in Tech proceedings, only a select few get to call the shots - Only a select few (again preferred old-timers) get to work on "what matters", and others are entrust to their people bargain skills. Inefficient HR - Pathetic coordination with Engineering managers - Each one to fend for his own visa, because HR needs the manager's input, and a "Manager" is not supposed to get involved in visa decisions. So, please contact the HR! - Not to mention weak and useless Legal supporting teams.

Pluspunten

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.

Minpunten

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.
