Always prepare for backup plan

Pros

Great team and managers. good pay.

Cons

There are four times laid off since joining the company two years ago. Despite having worked there for two years, my severance pay has only been two weeks. It's crucial to have a backup plan in place when joining this company. Upper management appears to undervalue the hard work of lower-level employees and frequently turns to budget cuts and layoffs to boost revenue in the short term. However, this strategy ultimately leads to the company spending a significant amount of money on third-party agencies in the long run. Ever since the UK acquired Intacct six years ago, Sage has continuously cut the Intacct workforce. US employees are working under pressure due to the constant threat of layoffs.
