Absolutely horrible company to work for

Pros

Some nice colleagues on the ground

Cons

Sage is the worst company I’ve ever worked for. At the top run by sociopaths trying to inflate the share price while bringing the company crashing down. In the middle staffed by managers prepared to lie and backstab to advance their careers by an inch. Not that it will do them any good - they will find themselves part of the next round of sackings soon.

Great People, Horrible Company

Pros

The people. Talent Acquisition does a great job in recruiting talented, innovative and great people. The Midtown Office is nice.

Cons

The powers that be believe that people are indispensable. They have a forced distribution rating system and get rid of people who are doing the work of multiple people. Bonuses have not been paid in over two years. Take a look at the company’s numbers, bonuses won’t be paid out again this year. Colleagues are getting terminated left and right, so that the company can cut costs, instead of doing the right thing and having real layoffs...but then that would mean that they would have to pay severances, and they don’t want to do that. And that would also be admitting that they aren’t doing as well, as they want to appear. Save yourself the heartache and just avoid this place.

Pros

One Sage lifer said: "We have no leadership. So we play a lot of golf." Easy to sell to under 100 employees organizations, even though executive team will push for up market (up to 200 employees.) There is so much confusion, that leads so much change, that execs have accepted their fate: we will lose deal after deal. So expectations low and dropping.

Cons

Management changed their titles to appear as VPs for prospect calls. No onboarding, no training, so your manager will be clueless. Morale cannot get lower, but it does. Of 12 reps on my team, 1 person has made sales, and the ISR team is devoted to his patch and in 3 years, all total, he is not close to quota for 1 year. Team sales meetings covered critical items such as: how to use email, how to call a prospect and ask for employee count rather than flying on-site, and when to use an SC (most reps had the SCs do most everything.)
