Pros

-Good Colleagues -Comp & Bens are decent

Cons

Sage is just dysfunctional, its a dinosaur relying on old technology and a diminishing customer base. While they purport themselves to be a market in leader which may be true in terms of customer base they are absolutely bottom of the curve in terms of technology. The investment in technology in the company is minimal in a space where innovation is everything Sage just dont get it. They talk the talk but have neither the senior management or desire to execute. There are some good people in Sage who have good ideas, good strategies and an ability to execute who i'm afraid are swallowed up by the machine and are never listened to with the constant pressure from Senior Leadership to hit the numbers. To truly show how helpless Sage really is all you have to do is look at the employee turnover for Employee's who have a tenure of 1 year or less. They come in take a look around and opt to leave the sinking ship.

Pros

was hired as remote and get to have that honored, but have been openly told no career progression because of remote status. decent pay

Cons

Leadership instability: Seven manager changes during my relatively short tenure. Unrealistic targets: A sales quota set at 1,100% growth (not a typo). Slow product development: Getting anything actioned on the product side takes far too long. Product management turnover: Three product manager changes, resulting in no meaningful deliverables in over three years. Misaligned hiring priorities: Greater emphasis on DEI optics than on hiring people positioned to drive growth. Internal vs. customer focus: More energy spent on internal events than on product enhancements. Lack of accountability (the biggest issue): No one takes ownership. Responsibility gets passed around constantly — for example, client cancellations going unprocessed because they impact someone's numbers. Managers have openly encouraged pushing the work onto someone else rather than handling it.
