Pros

Leaving was the best thing I've ever done for my mental health

Cons

I cannot begin to describe how traumatized I am from my time at Sage Intacct. I have never felt more psychologically unsafe and emotionally abused than at Sage Intacct. Management not only tolerates but rewards things like public humiliation in meetings, escalating behind your back, and aggressive, demeaning shouting at singled-out individuals during meetings. The culture is built on constant criticism, blame, and angry aggression. Every mistake is treated as a personal failure, even mistakes caused by unclear processes or shifting expectations. None of it was "feedback," it was public humiliation and bad-faith criticism that chipped away at my confidence and sense of self-worth until I walked away as a broken, defeated, and traumatized person. I am coping with real PTSD from working at Sage Intacct.

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.
