      Great products, but nobody cares about employees. - Senior Software Developer Sage Employee Review

      Pros

      Interesting, challenging and big products to work on, accounting software used by a lot of customers in many countries.

      Cons

      Higher management only cares about the numbers and the customers, they don't care about the employees. There also seems to be a lot of behind-the-scenes politics that can affect you a lot, but you'll never know who took the decision and why.

      Thanks for your review. We agree we have some amazing products, after all Sage is a market leader for integrated accounting, payroll and payment systems. We at Sage love our people, we know our awesome products and superb customer service and innovation wouldn't happen without them. That's why we invest in them and their environments...from cool new buildings to Sage Rewards (in some countries and will be rolled out) and to Platinum Elite. There are also 1000s of hours of video learning and development modules available to all colleagues, our brand new Women@Sage mentoring programme and our leading for leaders programme will ensure our leadership team will inspire and lead our colleagues to be the best they can be. Thanks again for your review.

      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.
