Pros

Weekends off and good hours. Pay is ok. Last manager I had was the best manager I have had, could not fault her.

Cons

After a company restructure I left like I was being treated like a child. Got asked to take another skill on and the promise of extra money for the extra work. Started the weeks training for the new skill only for it to be cancelled with 2 days of finishing, due to queues on he phones. Got told I would not have the chance to finish the training however would be getting the skill anyways and would not get any pay increase which was promised. So more work for same pay as other with less work I think is highly unfair. Had 4 managers for the year and a bit I was there which made me feel my development was stunted however my last manager could not be faulted in the slightest, best manager I have had. Thought I would be there for life but couldn't of stayed longer than I did.

Pros

Flexible work hours (unless you are tech support or call centre). Flexible vacation and personal time off Lots of great people Volunteer day

Cons

Sage has become a very competitive work place. No concern for the employees as it's become all about rising to the top, no matter who you have to take down to get there. Organizational changes every year which has consistently lowered morale and raised anxiety amongst the staff. No ongoing training. People Managers are not trained for managing and do not know how to do performance reviews or set goals that really matter to the team. There is no fun in this workplace and very little recognition.
