Pros
There used to be Pros working for this company but they are slowly dwindling. Most of the people are nice to work with but now there is a real essence of taking care of yourself first and then maybe helping other . The company's policies and current changes have reinforced that kind of behavior by pitting employees against each other to drive competition for their jobs. Benefits are ok. Lawrenceville location is nice and close to a lot of employees homes.
Kontras
Things at the Lawrenceville & Atlanta office have been on a decline for some time. We have lost many good employees due to layoffs and resignations and the hits just keep on coming. We just learned today that we are losing an important director in R&D. Unfortunately for Sage, he is well liked across departments and he seems to be the only one who can actually create new products for us to sell. I think his department last year put out 3-4 new products alone. It is hard to sit back and watch Sage lose a good leader especially because we seemed to be overwhelmed by poorly qualified and narrow minded managers and VPs as well as an arrogant and out of touch North America CTO. The truth is Sage is in trouble no matter how they try to spin it. I would not recommend Sage to anyone for employment. New grads would become frustrated without good leadership and learn a lot of what not to do before they move on to their next job. Experienced employees would be alarmed at the lack of direction and poor leadership, the slow laborious company processes, unfair sales practices, and the old cumbersome technology of most of our products. To anyone considering a position I say don't' be fooled by the new look of the modern Atlanta office and the HR spin on the great "One Sage" culture. It is all surface promises and hype. The company does not look out for it's employees. The HR department is contrived and useless. They pay under market value salaries, after you are hired they find ways to not pay bonuses or give merit increases and they are slowly decreasing our benefits. More importantly hard work and success are not recognized or appreciated. Morale couldn't be lower and the leaders sit back in complete denial protecting their own jobs. A previous review on this site warned Sage's competitors to "watch out" for upcoming business and products. Based on our old technology, lack of openness to change, staff loss and overall poor management my suggestion is to rest well competitors (whoever you are) you have nothing to worry about from Sage for a long time.
