They sure do put on a good show of having a moral back bone. Very convincing. - Customer Support Analyst Sage Employee Review

Pros

Full time employees get paid something approaching a living wage. The building is pretty nice. Desks, equipment and cubicles are pretty good, too. It's nice not having big walls between you and your neighbor.

Cons

Gender pay gap is a problem. Even after certain individuals finally got a well deserved promotion (see below regarding promotion and hire freezes), certain individual was still paid significantly less than new hires. Management does not consider employee complaints and sweeps them under the rug. What kind of complaints? Pretty much all of them. During an "all in" meeting, we were told "I'm not asking you to astroturf Glassdoor with good reviews, but, all of you, please post a positive review on Glassdoor," almost verbatim. I say almost because that was last year during a discussion about how their Glassdoor score wasn't as good as they'd like. Corporate enforced a hire freeze and a promotions freeze that we were told about by management, even though I've seen Corporate argue tooth and nail that there has never been a hiring or promotion freeze. Customer support analysts are expected to do sales work even though there is a sales team. Also, even once the promotions freeze finally ended, not meeting your sales quota meant that you were not eligible for promotions. I sure hope you like pushing sales at the end of every call. I sure hope you didn't pick the support position because you like *helping people* and troubleshooting tricky problems, and aren't morally opposed to tricking people into spending money that they don't need to. Otherwise, this ain't the job for you. Sexual harassment issues went unaddressed for weeks by lower management, and then the people who went over lower management's head to report it to someone above them were punished for following sexual harassment training guidelines specifically stating that, if management won't help, go over their heads.

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.
