      Going Downhill - Anonymous employee Sage Employee Review

      Pros

      Colleagues are great. They plan activities to boost morale.

      Cons

      The upper management who are very out of touch with what their employees do or how to stick to a process. They are so desperate to sell Sage products so they make exceptions all the time for clients and partners which is a disaster when those same clients and partners expect to get away with more discounts and no one can keep up with what's doable and not doable for processing those sales. Lack of structure overall.

      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.
