The time has finally come SAP to show that you have true global corporate mega-cahunas... that you can slovenly lay waste to your workforce with the best of them. Now that Germany is part of your Sla-ghterhouse (sorry... restructuring) plan, then let's please do it right: make sure that you send all of our dearest Franzes and Franzettes off to the proverbial corn (actually, white asparagus) field, so they finally understand what its like to spend your life slaving (well... let's face it.. not really... not in a high end Mercedes SUV company car) away only to get cut loose late in life, to struggle to bridge that precarious gap (chasm) between the here and now and the social safety net... you know.. to finally understand what its like to be like all of those Americans you like to complain about and look down on... you know... all of those Americans that helped make SAP what it is today: a global software giant, and not just some provincial, local, afterthought.

I don’t think that’s what the poster is saying. Try reading it again.
It’s not Germany’s fault. Or, for that matter, not the fault of SAP’s German employees. But, a fundamental difference is the fact that it’s easier to dump American employees… and when SAP parts with a German employee that “parting” is significantly less abrupt, less of a shock to the system. My long experience with the company is that Germans get far more than Americans, expect far more, while delivering at virtually the same level.
So it’s not Germany’s or the Germans “fault”. As is the case in all of this, it’s the company and its leadership.
But thanks for paying attention.
Germany is voluntary only.
And yeah not Germany's fault that the US has no real labour protection and representation.
How is it Germans fault that US system su-ks and there is no labor code and employee protection?
