> I recognize my behavior at that moment did not reflect our values at SAP.

This line in corporate apology statements is so weird, like SAP had some unique higher ethical code that opposed sexual harassment, which only one called to the service of humanity as a SAP executive would understand. I guess whoever writes these things always throws it in to try to subtley reassure people that it's not systemic?

    Seven figure plus payouts for something like that are not a thing in Germany. At best, you might get a low four figure number.

Isn't that really just "hush money", i.e. non-disclosure and non-compete?

And yes, to my fellow commenters, "something big is (indeed) wrong" not just there but all over the world, because most everyone has the same corporate mechanisms, filled with the same corporate mules, slinging the same corporate "economic slavery", as Bob Marley so eloquently and beautifully put it so long ago.

If he can keep his hands to himself that should be enough for a nice early retirement.
