Company Culture
What was the company culture and general atmosphere like?
The company culture is getting better, and I don’t think it’s specific to SAP, but there are some culture issues across the technology industry and in the corporate world which have been highlighted.
Being a woman in tech can be difficult, as it’s a male dominated industry, but having diversity and inclusion groups for support, such as the BWN, is a credit to SAP.

Recommendations & Advice
Would you recommend SAP to a friend?
Yes
What advice would you give to others applying to SAP
Go in with an open mind, network as much as you possibly can - if you expand your network you really get to see different areas of the business and see what you do & don’t like - which is a really important aspect of your placement. Explore options while you’re young, have limited responsibilities & a career ahead of you!
