About Me:

I am about to graduate with Master in CS in 2 months and have around 1.5 YOE(Data Engineer + Backend Developer)

SAP Intern:

Position: Ixp Intern(8 Months) - Maybe remote or in-person(Will depend on the manager when assigned)
Pays 35 CAD/Hour

Data Engineer(remote):

Pays 40 CAD/Hour
Some Employee Stock options
I really love the company, the team I will be working on, and everything else(except the pay)

I am a bit worried about the pay as after the internship SAP will probably pay a lot more than 40 CAD/hour when converting to Full Time. What do you folks suggest I choose?

Also, I already told the Company offering Data engineers about the SAP and they increased pay from 37 to 40. #internship #canada #sap

  • I’m not a data engineer so can’t really comment on it. As a software engineer, the work can be hit or miss (lots of maintenance work in some teams).

    2-1 is lowest intermediate level at sap. This was 5 years ago so it might not be true any more.

    You can’t really go wrong with either option. I made good friends while I was doing the internship at sap, and work was pretty chill. If you are aiming to move to bigger companies, sap will be easier to get interviews. (A lot of ex sap intern friends are now at amazon/microsoft/etc)

      Thank you. I agree SAP will definitely help with getting interview at bigger companies.

      Does 2-1 mean experienced developer offer
      And 1-2 mean new grad offer?

  • As for sap, Even if you get a full time offer (which can be difficult to get due to the limited number of openings), the pay bump isn’t gonna be that much. They’ll give you 2-1 if you have prior internship at sap

      What's a 2-1?

      Would you suggest towards the full time position? I am thinking to build my skills there and wait for the review at the end of the year and decide if I want to look for new job.

  • What’s the name of the company at Calgary? Sap Vancouver is a good place for internship
