Good company to work for, but management has unrealistic perception of work/life balance.

Business Outlook

Pros

The people you work with are all interesting, smart, and capable. The company offers really good benefits, and compared to other people they're amazing. The management is pretty good in most departments.

Cons

It's a publishing job, so no one expects a big salary. That being said, salaries are definitely on the low end of the range. Makes it hard to get by in DC.

Pros

SAGE Worldwide is actually a connected family with free-flow of ideas, and a genuine concern for its workforce. SAGE also thinks out of the box with its publishing program.

Cons

Could do with better salaries and a more transparent, unbiased top-down communication
