      Pros

      Standard. Nothing extraordinary that you couldn't get at a similar company. It's better than some I guess.

      Cons

      Just laid off hundreds of people after hiring someone new at the top. Let's go to the cloud he said. That is where the money is, but let's lay off over half of our software engineers who work in the cloud so that we can hire more engineers over seas for cheaper. When I started at this company, the reviews were in the 3s on here. That's where they deserve to be with this shady nonsense! This was not the first time Sage has done this. I do not think it is the last!

      Thanks for your review. As you say, we have recently made some decisions about the roles and skills that Sage will need as we move forward. The needs of all our stakeholders require us to continue shifting our investments towards those foundational areas to Sage’s long-term success. We understand how difficult these changes are for our colleagues, especially those impacted. These decisions have not been taken lightly. Affected colleagues will be offered outplacement support and the chance to apply for other roles within Sage. As a sage colleague, please use available confidential listening surveys to highlight your concerns; this will better understand how we can support you and other colleagues.

      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.
