      Pros

      The pros are the people, they make it; my colleagues care about what they do, many of them are amazing at what they do and for the rest of us like me, its an organisation and culture that cares about helping us grow. I also really value the 5 days a year we get to do voluntary work for local charities and the really good training and accreditation provision; I feel invested in.

      Cons

      The cons are the size of the organisation. If you want to work somewhere where they have the capacity to do things to the best of industry standard you have to accept that it will be a big company like Sage. That said, all the folk I've worked with here are friendly and there's always someone who knows someone who you can talk to to get anything done.

      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.
