Pros

Decent base pay Excellent Colleagues

Cons

Bonuses and pay rises have been decreasing year on year. ELT are quick to blame failures on staff and refuse to acknowledge their role in any shortcomings. This company no longer cares for its employees' work life balance, or about retaining good staff.

Pros

Sage products get rave reviews and SMB's really benefit from them. Sage is very tech-forward and is heavily invested in their AI technology.

Cons

In my department, there is terrible leadership and accountability. No one knows what they are supposed to be working on or why. Projects get started and dropped. The left hand doesn't know what the right hand is doing. There are no consistent best practices on how teams work together, internal communications, consistent documentation, measuring impact, etc.
