Thread regarding SAP layoffs

2.4% Salary Round

Clearly 3,500 people leaving in 2024 wasn't enough, now management needs more people to quit or at least switch teams. I really pity all the L1 managers that have to share the news to their teams who expected something normal or better after such a strong year for the stock price.

Signavio's "management" is moving around and promoting long-term SAP employees from the Walldorf and Sankt Leon Rot locations, giving them at least a 8% raise. 2.4% and lower are reserved for those who came in through the acquisition. It is time to fire anyone who has not spent at least a decade with SAP. If they don’t choose to leave on their own.

Even though the results of company and stock performance for 2024 were above expectations, based on the gossips the merits and bonuses this year will be worse than they were in 2024. Some countries will not even even their inflation rate (again).

I find it ridiculous as it was said by Klein Christian that they will make sure that "this stellar performance will be reflected on your compensation". Right. Time to polish my resume and catch a better train.

With US being ~1.8% , 2.4% doesn't look that bad anymore ? Now, does it ?

Now add the rise in the stock price , and do the maths again ! ! Fk**ng entitled people ! Germany doesn't even have GDP growth , entire europe is stifled when it comes to innovation, and look the arrogance of asking for a raise ! If not for the labor laws, half of the folks would be cutting those asparagus growing in WDF fields !

It's really offensive to the employees to offer raises below the inflation rate. What is it for the US this year?

  1. 2% announced in France: this so-called "merit increase" is lower than what a basic "inflation-related increase" would have been...

He has no clue - just picks a number out of his hat and stirs up some sh*t
Pay increase will be around 5% + several 100s of shares that keep increasing in value
