Management is disjointed. They have no care for their employees or their customers. Leadership decisions made without always looking at the big picture. Plenty of talented people have left. 30 or 40% potential bonus written in job letter that you never ever received. Top Management and manages eat bonuses.
Sage continues to engage in business practices that negatively impact their employees at every turn. They continually cut employee benefits in an effort to boost financial performance perception, and they operate with the "do more with less people" mentality. They use a completely outdated process for performance management, forcing managers to have to arbitrarily score employees with "unsatisfactory and needs improvement" in order to hit the bell curve quota established by HR. Merit increases are tiny, even for high performers. Don't expect to be rewarded for your hard work in keeping their customers happy. They will continue to under-appreciate you and nit pick at you about meaningless arbitrary goals that have NOTHING to do with serving the customer.
If you do work here, good luck trying to get a raise and promotion. You can work as hard as you can, exceed expectations, and receive zero recognition. You will receive a lot of empty promises, and despite the abundance of executives and upper management.
I am Sage. I am a mediocre business software company with no real direction other than "reorganization".
I am Sage. I punish employees who attempt to innovate and only allow creativity if one of the upper management staff comes up with an idea (i.e. steals it from subordinate employee and takes credit for it).
I am Sage. I treat my employees as disposable resources. No one is valuable and I show no loyalty to them unless I need something.
I am Sage. I believe the number of tweets my executives send will make us more successful in the US market rather than producing functional technology that customers want to buy. Please follow us.
I am Sage. I will take away employee bonuses and terminate employees until our financials look good on the books and then turn a blind eye to how we have destroyed the internal structure and morale of our company. Don't ask how we are going to meet our numbers next year.
I am Sage. I believe the closeness of the Atlanta airport is an amenity for my employees. (Yes I think staff truly believes that).
