      Can be a good school - Senior Software Developer Sage Employee Review

      Pros

      It is a big ship, moves slowly and a bit clumsy at times. However, it has a lot of good people and strives to do good things. It is possible to learn a lot if we put the right effort and motivation, but it's easy to get lost in the motions if we just let go and drift around. On the other side, with the right effort, we can find a safe place to learn, grow and eventually move on if we find we get stuck.

      Cons

      It's easy to get lost in the motions and let the years pass and get mediocre at best. The salary is a bit below the market, which shows management has lost control of human resources probably due to its size.

      Pros

      Work life balance is the strongest attribute at Sage. Family matters and mental stablity is supported. Top notch benefits.

      Cons

      Departments with mixed roles of similar tasks, yet separate teams without collaboration.

      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.
