      Pros

      The people are the only good thing about Sage

      Cons

      The false promises, lies from management. Forcing people into the office with zero consultation has been very damaging for the mental health for 100s, if not 1000’s of employees. There is absolutely no justification for this but just to get bums on seats of their new premises. It doesn’t make any sense when people have been working from home for years, with no negative impact on work output. In fact, productivity is up! But the message is clear from the top “you know where the door is, see ya!” So much for the Sage values of “trust”, “do the right thing” etc etc - just corporate garbage.

      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.
