Pluspunten

Only pro to taking a job here would be the three month gaurantee for commissions and the high salary they will offer. If you're desperate and need employment, this is the place to ride the train to the bottom. Make sure you have an exit strategy quick, as you'll likely be put on performance plan immediately after.

Minpunten

Huge mismanagement, mistakes and disconnects from the top. Word spread fast about large layoffs of key positions where ramp up times are 8-12 months to be effective around Sage while executives spout how we are "growing". Morale hit a new low yesterday for employees that weren't walked and are still remaining. Seriously don't work here. I've regularly seen employees turn in year after year of high performance and then several of them were let go yesterday simply because they made too much. No promotion from within and a terrible bell curve review system. I personally know several Sales people who received a "Meets Expectations" after being one of the few to turn in 110% above quota numbers. Does that sound like a meets expectations to you? Our competitors give out trophies and gifts for that. If you have any talent, looks elsewhere or you'll simply be frustrated until you leave. If you don't believe me, simply ask any front line Sage colleague off the record. Hit us up on LinkedIn and do your research.

Pluspunten

was hired as remote and get to have that honored, but have been openly told no career progression because of remote status. decent pay

Minpunten

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.
