Pros

Brilliant opportunity. Big company. Work away scheme means you can work from abroad for 9 weeks of the year. Pay is standard. Subsidised Starbucks in the office.

Cons

Strict and sudden move to hybrid working (3 days per week in office). Multiple restructures in recent years mean lots of gaps. No processes and blurred lines of responsibility makes the job more stressful than it should be. Often see people online and working at all hours so it's clear that work-life balance is being eroded.

Pros

As a new BDR, I’ve been really impressed with the level of engagement from senior leadership. Recently, management organized a session that included leaders from the Atlanta office to connect with the team in Canada. They created an open forum to ask how we’re doing, what we enjoy most about working here, and what we would like to see improved. What stood out was how consistently people highlighted the culture and the people in Canada as a major strength. It’s a genuinely supportive and collaborative environment. I also really appreciated our MD taking the time to listen and ask for honest feedback — it shows that leadership truly cares about the employee experience. It’s a great example of a company that is not just talking about culture, but actively investing in it.

Cons

love that we have fresh fruit now but would appreciate additional healthy snacks

Pros

Sage offers a strong combination of scale and opportunity. There is real investment in the HCM space, and the acquisition of Criterion has created a platform with significant growth potential. The leadership team is engaged, and there are talented people across the organization who are committed to building something meaningful. There is also good access to customers, partners, and cross-functional teams, which makes it possible to drive real impact. If you are someone who likes building, solving problems, and operating in a growth environment, there is a lot of opportunity here.

Cons

Like many large organizations, alignment and decision-making can sometimes take time, especially across regions and functions. There are still areas where processes and ownership are evolving post-acquisition, which can create occasional friction. That said, these are also typical of a company going through transformation and scaling, and there is active effort to improve.
