Pros

The benefits were great (low cost health insurance, 401k, short term disability). Also....many people were allowed to work remotely and provided flexible work hours.

Cons

Sage NA is a huge company and each division is ran differently. My experiences at one division is most likely different then the experiences at another. At my division......there was a HUGE disconnect between employees and management. Goals and forecasting was a top down approach and often times, you would start the year without even seeing your yearly quota. Management never engaged employees or customers or input. There was also huge turn over in upper management and their replacements weren't much better. Employee engagement and morale is extremely low. Very few employees care about the company and frequently maintain the status quo. The company/division overall lacks innovation and vision to become a first rate company. Last, the company cares very little about the community or environment, wasting thousands of pages of paper without recycling.

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.
