Pros

They have unlimited snacks and a cool office in Atlantic Station. My boss didn't care if my coworkers were off to their lunch break for 30 minutes or 3 hours.

Cons

Where to start - the marketing team is terrible. They should probably invest in hiring an outside marketing firm. It's not a great feeling when you call leads and turns out that they are current Sage employees or applicants. The marketing team loves blaming the entire sales team for not selling correctly, but they just don't want to admit that they don't know what they are doing. The culture is corporate to a point where nothing gets fixed and your job turns pretty admin trying to document things that are wrong in hopes that your boss can help fix, but that really never happens. Not to mention the VP of sales just resigned along with the head of North America. Goes to show how great the company is doing!!

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.
