Pros

I love working at Sage. I love the people and how they care and collaborate. I love how much I am challenged and the opportunities presented. The past year has been a tough one as the business navigates a complex transition and I don't think the company made the right decisions at every turn. However, with Steve Hare in the role as Interim COO, I already feel like there have been some important shifts in tone from the top, encouraging a far more nurturing, honest culture with colleagues, where people can speak out and be listened to. The mood and morale in the business feels much better and I think that will continue. I also feel like the decisions management are starting to take now are taking the business in the right direction and things are going to continue to improve.

Cons

There is still lots to do in the business to make it the best it can be but I think we are making steps in the right direction

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.
