Pros

• salary/ wages are reasonable/ above average. • Colleagues I work with directly are friendly/ good to work with. • Flexible working conditions i.e. work from home • "Seemingly" trying to resolve internal issues.

Cons

• Under-staffed, under resourced and unreasonable project completion times causing pressures from "SLT" (so-called senior leadership team) that trickles down. This results in a stressful environment. • Focuses on quantity and not quality in the way of projects/ products. • Confused agenda and strategy. • Self-interest/ blame culture - misaligned priorities (in departments and management) mean everyone is looking out for themselves. • Time- wasting (redundant/ irrelevant meetings, admin tasks that are not meaningful) and bureaucracy (segregation in departments/ services not located locally) adds to difficulty in being productive or effective.

Pros

Sage Intacct is full of opportunities. I do believe that if you work hard and stay focused on your goals, you can have a very flourishing career here. Also, there are great people to meet along the way.

Cons

As with any work environment, there will be politics and differences to navigate through. So long as you stay focused on your performance and goals, and steer clear from the politics, your experience here will be great. Also keep in mind that if you want to succeed at a high level here, then you'll have to consider an imbalanced work/life situation. But this isn't exclusive to this company.
