Index reports that not only Pintér but the entire senior management of the Hungarian unit of the German-owned firm have also been dismissed in a case that involves prostitutes at a SAP event

The dismissals follow an internal investigation launched across the group after a sexual-abuse case surfaced in the US last year, which led to the dismissal of two senior executives.

No abuse was reported in Hungary. However, internal correspondence revealed troubling references to a company event, prompting the leadership change, Telex writes.

SAP declined to comment on “rumours and speculation regarding personnel or event decisions”.

Pintér joined SAP in 2007 and became chief executive of the Hungarian subsidiary in 2019.

Allegedly prostitutes and drug use may have featured at one of the firm’s conferences, Index adds.
