Pros

Upper Management are mostly clueless and have no real direction. The rest of us just have to pick up the pieces. Colleagues are really good to work with, and the work/technology can be interesting. If you can showcase your skill then advancement can be really easy, but it all depends on the quality of your manager.

Cons

Remote work was sold to us as necessary for the business with no proper justification. We're an international company, a lot of the people we communicate with are remote as we aren't at the same office. We sit there like a call centre, headsets and webcams on, not doing any real work because of the distractions in the office. Sage don't care about the travel/childcare costs incurred to us, it's not their problem. There's only two justifications I can see for moving to hybrid work, when the directors visit the office (rarely) they like it to be full so that they can film it every so often, and that they've had pressure from the canteen to get more customers. Upper management also act like cowards, changing things like hybrid working through internal twitter-like posts, instead of discussing it with us properly. This kind of behaviour has given many workers a negative outlook of Sage. Sage don't care about you, they like to shout about being human-focused but they're really not.
