"Our vision is to have the best people and working environment in the software industry. It is our people, and our rich diversity and cultural wealth that are really SAP's greatest assets."
– Claus Heinrich, Global Chief Human Resources Director, SAP AG, and Member, SAP Executive Board
SAP seeks out the most talented individuals in the world to help create value and foster innovation for the benefit of our customers. Our more than 42,750 employees work in an environment that encourages the open, free expression of innovative ideas.
Passion and Enthusiasm for Our Company
It is our employees who define SAP and give us our competitive edge. Our employees' commitment and ongoing innovative contributions make our company what it is today – the world's leading provider of business software.
Recruiting Extraordinary People
To achieve extraordinary innovation, SAP actively recruits extraordinary people. Since the company's founding, we have set out to create the kind of corporate culture that gives employees the personal freedom they need to achieve their individual goals while supporting the objectives of the company. SAP asks a great deal of its employees and gives much in return – including rich career benefits and access to superior knowledge, tools, and resources.
Rich Diversity and Cultural Wealth
Remarkable ideas flourish in open, healthy environments. This is why we embrace a diverse workforce – representing 100 nationalities worldwide – and a corporate structure that nurtures innovative new concepts. We believe that diversity is a source of our innovative strength and allows us to better meet and understand the needs of customers. SAP actively promotes diversity in culture, race ethnicity, gender, nationality, religion, age, disability, marital status, education, sexual orientation, opinion, and belief. And our Global Diversity Office is dedicated to promoting our diversity policy to ensure compliance and to create a work environment in which each individual's contributions are recognized.
Nurturing Talent Worldwide
SAP is committed to recruiting and retaining top talent and offers employees a flexible, rewarding working environment. Each individual comes to SAP with different goals, dreams, and aspirations – some to pursue a career in management; others a functional career path. We strive to make both possible and to allow individuals to realize their full potential. SAP's success in these efforts has been recognized in numerous employer rankings across the globe.
