Pros

Work life balance and benefits are good. Low pressure, mostly - due to the nature of academic publishing

Cons

Slow to adapt Overreliance on AI People leave and aren't replaced (therefore workload just accumulates - and the remaining team just do the best they can) When a colleague took extended sick leave, nothing was done - the work just piled up for the period of time she was away - there is no one to cover when unexpected things happen. There have been redundancies every year I've been at Sage since 2018, across every team and every level - not sure how healthy the company is underneath the shiny veneer.

It's a average company with too nosy manager

Pros

Leaves at your own convenience and no ask policy

Cons

A lot of it actually. A lot of micromanagement happens with the team members. Supervisors are so nosy they even want your 1-minute record of where you are. I am sure even upper management is aware of this culture but not taking action, only bluffing that we respect your work efforts, etc. Salary is nothing compared to the work we are doing; it's not even industry standards. They are just giving pennies for a whole lot of work. Every 6 months they changed the reporting supervisor and team restructure, which is mind-boggling
