Vantaggi

Good benefts, health insurance, time off, bonuses, well-developed HR program.

Svantaggi

Management is becoming driven from the top down. Lower managers are trying to produce numbers for upper management. By so doing, they are driving employees to produce numbers. The customers are starting to lose out as a result. You can't take time for the customer because it will hurt your metrics. The training is great at first, but after 3 months they default on seeing and providing the real ongoing training needs. It starts to be a game of producing numbers because the upper management has decided that these numbers mean the company is going to profit. It gets to the point where lower management is resorting to dishonest means to try and produce the numbers. If something is important, but it isn't part of the numbers that the lower managers are trying to produce, it will be neglected because the lower managers are trying so hard to produce the numbers they can't afford to consider anything else.

Vantaggi

-Pay’s decent -Benefits are solid -The Sage Foundation feels like proper philanthropy -Some genuinely nice people -If you’re happy treating work as just a payslip and don’t mind things being a bit dull, Sage is actually quite a comfortable place to be. That stability is a real perk

Svantaggi

-Far too many layers of middle management and general bureaucracy -The Ai push is getting a bit daft -Not especially innovative, so the work can feel quite uninspiring. I’m grateful to be employed, but if you’re after something more interesting, Sage will probably disappoint. That said, some people prefer it that way, fair enough -The office / hybrid requirements feel a bit pointless -Sage doesn’t tend to do layoffs, which is good, but it does mean there are quite a few people where you’re not entirely sure what they do. A lot of meetings, essentially. Even the positives come with trade-offs
