"if you have a SAP job and it doesn't pay enough to get you through the month"
It doesn't mean SAP jobs hasn't much value. It does mean your organization doesn't want to give value for SAP jobs.
Its depend on organization. You wont believe my organization is treating us (SAP team) as a computer data operator. Now think what will be the package structure of a computer data operator.
So here, its a problem of my organization, I will never say that I get peanuts from SAP jobs.
