      Pros

      Every time the ratings go down Sage will post short and obvious fake reviews to keep the truth of how they treat employees from shareholders.

      Cons

      Employee morale is at an all time low. You can't be on one meeting without someone bringing up how ridiculous leadership is at Sage. Now four 4 star reviews just days after employees were cheated out of their bonuses. Cheated is accurate as shareholders, executives, and the board are not suffering a 3% bonus (if you are lucky) rather than the 20%-30% bonus in comp plans. Unless you are the CEO or CFO then bonus plan closer to 90% of base pay. Class war in full effect. Billions per year company paying CEO and CFO millions yet employees unable to even get their Christmas bonus!

      Thanks for your feedback. At Sage we have a philosophy of ‘pay for performance’ and this year more than 90% of our bonus eligible colleagues across 23 countries will receive a payment to recognise their contribution. These payments are based on their country and own personal performance, with the highest performing teams and individuals being handsomely rewarded. In addition to performance-based bonus and commission plans, we offer competitive base salaries, as well as a flexible and award-winning benefits package designed to meet the needs of our diverse workforce.

      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.
