Leaderless and lacking vision (Sage Live)

Pros

Sage offers a solid benefits package to its employees. The biggest perk is starting off with 20 days of paid time off.

Cons

1. Lack of leadership 2. Inability to try creative practices 3. No accountability on groups that fail to perform (global marketing unable to deliver the necessary MQLs to ensure sales and customer success can hit their targets yet when they are called out for quality and quantity they question the other teams) 4. Employees constantly jockey for position in a constant game of politics and trying to make themselves look good instead of focusing on employees and the customer. 5. Leadership lacks the ability to analyze data and be agile to the shifting landscape to make sure the product is positioned to address pain points in the market. I could go on and on, but I do not want to bore you.

We believe it is important to invest in providing a world-class customer experience, but also in our people.

Pros

Flexible work hours (unless you are tech support or call centre). Flexible vacation and personal time off Lots of great people Volunteer day

Cons

Sage has become a very competitive work place. No concern for the employees as it's become all about rising to the top, no matter who you have to take down to get there. Organizational changes every year which has consistently lowered morale and raised anxiety amongst the staff. No ongoing training. People Managers are not trained for managing and do not know how to do performance reviews or set goals that really matter to the team. There is no fun in this workplace and very little recognition.

Unprofessional, Broken Promises, Set for Failure

Pros

Good PTO if you are able to use, and reasonable health benefits

Cons

Backfill positions have been 8 months and counting in replacement, leaving one colleague to support a national independent sales force. Colleague is drowning and suffering physically and mentally. No reasons are given and no good reasons exist. Have gotten to the point of offer letters for candidates and those have not been put off for a month and continuing. One would assume that the campus is being shut down.
