Overpromise, underdeliver

Pros

Work with some amazing people. Very talented and educated ground level staff. Nice new office. Name looks good on paper in some industries.

Cons

Complete lack of transparency, plan, and accountability. When interviewed, you will be promised the world and told how wonderful sage culture is. That unfortunately is not true. Wages are lower than most competitors. There is not a plan of action for how front line sales reps will deliver metrics desired (they would like you to call from a lead list, but have few/no leads). Upper management will say whatever is necessary to pacify the reps and stop a storm from getting any worst. 2. Training is abysmal, you may never actually interact with the product you sell, let alone be able to explain the intricacies to a customer. The training staff is phenomenal, but they do not have a say in what material is taught. You also do not get a copy of the software yourself, even if it is for product knowledge purposes. 3. Promises will be broken. You may be agree to a bonus only to have it taken away from you 2 weeks before Christmas. You may be told that you may operate as if it were your own business, only to be micromanaged. You're "total compensation" may say 70+ on an offer letter, but you may only be given the resources to make 50k. 9 out of 10 times it will still be your fault. despite upper management acknowledging that you have not been trained or have proper tools for your position.

Pros

Great peers to work with. Management will help you with your personal and career development. 9 to 5 Monday to Friday , 25 day holidays, free snacks and lunch, really cool new state of the art office space. laid back working environment (if your into that) the new CEO shows promise for the company. everyone is exciting about the new cloud accounting product but im yet to be convinced on it.

Cons

For a technology company that have the worst internal commutation systems I have ever seen or worked with. This is a company with a CRM offering to its customers and yet they use a program that looks and works likes it is from the 80s. Products are not great to work with or support , I am forever telling or explaining to customers about product limitations. There installation of one of the flag ship products is an absolute disgrace, millions is being spent on installation ever year wasting both staff and customers time. Very slow to improve processes and approach to customer services can be backwards at times. The pay is terrible.
