Thanks for your review. Great to hear you had a positive work life balance when you were at Sage and you enjoyed our benefits - which isn't surprising as this year we won an award "Most engaging benefits proposition". We take comments about bullying seriously and have internal systems/processes in place to deal with any such instances. Our transition to One Sage has been an important change for us and we are seeing the benefits of the changes. We have learnt important lessons along the way too. Change can be uncomfortable for some people, which we understand, and we do all we can to support our people through the necessary transformation. 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.
