      A company for the Shareholders - Account Executive Sage Employee Review

      Pros

      Benefits- Dental, Vision, Medical, Gym reimbursement. Start with vacation time Overtime available if needed Pay is decent if you can hit goal. Work/Life balance is good

      Cons

      Company is becoming to vested in the shareholders rather than the employees. Doubling or even tripling goals from the previous year without making improvements to the product- and at the same time increasing the price of the product 2 to 4 times a year. Micro-managing is ridiculous because of the impossible-to-hit goals. Sage puts on a facade of being a huge family and "OneSage", but again, all of its changes are for the shareholders, not the employees. Too many changes happen in a year with compensation.

      Thank you for taking the time to write a review. We are glad to hear that you are enjoying the benefits and feel you have a good work-life balance. That is important no matter where you work. It’s true that we set the bar high, and the introduction of our cloud products will not only bring huge benefits to our customers, but assist in our sales team in achieving their goals as well. We have many changes over the past couple of years, and like most companies, we are always looking for ways that we can improve our colleague experience. Your feedback is always welcome and very much appreciated.

      Pros

      Good benefits. Strong company. Customer focus.

      Cons

      Frequent Executive changes. Trimming in Engineering teams interferes with product changes.

      Pros

      -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

      Cons

      -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

We also recognise the points you’ve raised around bureaucracy, innovation, and the pace and focus of change. Different people are motivated by different things at work, and it’s helpful to hear honest perspectives on how our structure, processes, and priorities can impact day‑to‑day experience and engagement.
