      Pros

      Good benefits overall. Opportunities to work away for up to 4-6 weeks during the year If you live in South Dublin, office is convenient and has parking for employees 5 paid days of charity during the year

      Cons

      Micro management (pressure on managers to do so) Preaching engagement and transparency with employees but it is not real nor useful. Example: surveys for employees on how we feel and like Sage that don't really accomplish anything Salaries are not competitive and quite small raise over the year Big focus on business and profit, small focus on employee and improving conditions / work environment The back to office (3 days per week) has been so badly handled. Now the company is monitoring IP addresses to advise managers to check on team members People are leaving or getting redundancies but no hiring back to replace positions needed, which creates additional work for those staying

      Pros

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

      Cons

      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.
