      Pros

      80% of people are great to work with

      Cons

      Sage asks for 'high performance,' but clearly this isn't recognised. It's more about how many friends you can make higher up and if you fit a certain personality and/or look. A lot of favouritism towards colleagues who are female and white to improve 'diversity,' even if that means better performers are looked over when it comes to reward and recognition. It's unfortunately the usual 'play the game' corporate environment. Certain Sales Managers are very difficult to work with, with reports of multiple team members crying due to the use of inappropriate language and repeated rudeness. Just because of their position, comments and actions are brushed under the table.

      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.
