Pros

Great benefits with a decent work life balance. Good brand recognition despite having extremely stale products. Awesome co-workers and very little micro management.

Cons

For sales positions you are set up to fail....the organization has ZERO SALE CULTURE. The products are extremely old and outdated. With no real innovation or enhancements coming out, Sage is losing market share at an exponential rate. Morale is low which has led to a level of apathy that is almost comical. Internal systems are a nightmare which includes the complete and total lack of a CRM system. Most of my colleagues are actively looking for new employment opportunities.

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.
