Hi Martin

I was in Barcelona a few years ago, overseeing the development part of the SAP implementation project there. Nice city.

Yes Matt, excellent city. Probably the only one (together with Lisbon) where you can find: good weather, cosmopolitan city, beaches, and SAP projects. Now there are not many projects, but usually there are.

However at junior and intermediate levels of seniority, project language is definitely Spanish, (some acceptable level of Spanish, don`t have to be Cervantes with it!).

Regards, Martin.

We had a team of 20 Spanish programmers. Only two of them spoke English. The Team Lead from HQ could only communicate with the team through those two.

It was strange. The functional guys had big desks and were 6 to an office. The developers had about a square metre of desk space each and were all in one office. During the heat of the summer, with no aircon...

Now I know why this happens here (we were a Spanish colony).... I don´t know if this is common practice in other countrys but here in Venezuela (South America) Developers are usually treated like second class workers and functionals are untouchables :-o.

I wonder if this is normal in other latitudes....

Welcome to the forum.

Also I would like to inform you that whenever you would like to post any SAP related issues in this forum, please ensure that they are not basic and repeated questions for which, if you make a search, you will get lot of inputs. Many newbies are tend to do this and hence, an advance appeal.

thanks
