      Thank you for sharing your experiences so far while working at Sage. Having an outward focus is tremendously important for Sage to win in the market, and it’s an advantage for us that colleagues like you value that and see the necessity of it. We encourage you to share your views with colleagues, your manager, your shared services teams and anyone you work with so that your ideas can help bring about the change that we need at Sage. We hope you will be part of that change but if for any reason you don’t feel empowered to speak up, we would encourage you to take a look at the Code of Conduct which is found on the Sage Academy (it refers to Safecall – it’s free and confidential) or contact your People business partner. Above all, Sage needs to value the visions of change like yours and we will do all we can to make room for them.

      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.
