Pros

Sage has good employees who genuinely care about customers. However, many of them have left or are on their way out. The company provides average salaries and benefits. Nothing to get excited about but at least they offer something.

Cons

I am Sage. I am a mediocre business software company with no real direction other than "reorganization". I am Sage. I punish employees who attempt to innovate and only allow creativity if one of the upper management staff comes up with an idea (i.e. steals it from subordinate employee and takes credit for it). I am Sage. I treat my employees as disposable resources. No one is valuable and I show no loyalty to them unless I need something. I am Sage. I believe the number of tweets my executives send will make us more successful in the US market rather than producing functional technology that customers want to buy. Please follow us. I am Sage. I will take away employee bonuses and terminate employees until our financials look good on the books and then turn a blind eye to how we have destroyed the internal structure and morale of our company. Don't ask how we are going to meet our numbers next year. I am Sage. I believe the closeness of the Atlanta airport is an amenity for my employees. (Yes I think staff truly believes that). Potential employees, take some time to sort the reviews on this site by Date and not Popular at the top right hand side of the first page. You will see this company's ratings are in a nosedive and have been for a while. Sage recognizes this and is in a panic which is demonstrated by their "planting" of reviews by upper management and Human Resources on this site. Any time you see terms/ phrases like "onboarding process" "being a change agent" or "Sound Leadership" make note these reviews are planted to combat the truthful reviews from employees. This behavior is an exact example of how their management strategy has gone wrong. They feel the need to spend more time spreading misleading information on this site to cover up real problems than improving on what's wrong in the daily workings of the company. This is not surprising because after some reflection on some of the most recent reviews Sage would have to admit that the root of most of their problems is a stagnant and ineffective leadership team who make bad decisions and have an inability to manage and motivate their teams.

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.
