Hi,
I am Ravi Kant Awasthi working for SAP Labs India from last 16 months. When I joined it I was told that it ranks 8 among all and 2 among s/w companies in terms of employee satisfaction in India and soon I realised this fact also. The funda here is when the mind is free and does not have any kind of restriction then it is supposed to be best in terms of productivity and quality. At the time of hiring, they check that how much you are interested in the kind of work which will be allotted to you and after that they allow the person to work in his own way that is why the interview itself is taken by the person who will be the manager later.This freedom starts from flexibility in timings. No time recording so no compulsion on no. of hours or specification of them. Once in an year goals are smartly decided and you need to fulfil them, so no body cares about timings at all. Other very important thing is that people have good expertise in their areas and they are always ready to help so there is always a helping hand. In terms of growth opportunity, it depends on individual. System is very flexible towards individuals choice and skills. Everybody is free to choose any line i.e. technical, people management, consultant. The knowledge database is huge. You can get several possible solution and people to discuss about them very easily.About other benefits I will say no transportation charges, no restrictions on the internet usage and no charges for lunch. In fact from CEO to security person all share the same canteen! In the work place also everybody is given equal importance. No interference in your work without your permission. I will associate the word FREEDOM with the working environment of SAP.
Thanks
