      Pros

      - People on the Ground and 'Old Sage' are great. They are invested in their colleagues and customers and interested in doing the best for both of them. - Sharesave, Reward Gateway and the other benefits are very good - Offices have good facilities available

      Cons

      Having worked for Sage for a number of years, I always used to sing their praises as an employer and would regularly defend them against any criticism. However, over the last 2 -3 years I have seen a huge turnaround in Sage's attitude towards its employees. It no longer feels like you're cared for and employees are now merely a number. This seems to be the new strategy in order to push employees as far as possible to increase profit and please the shareholders. The senior management also seem make decisions based on personal agendas rather than what is best for the company and its customers. Its a shame people like Jacqueline have left as they seem to be managers that actually care about employees. Pay is also well below industry standard.

      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.
