Pros

Colleagues are great, not to much working outside of 9-5

Cons

Management do not explain changes and why they are happening, means job role and account base regularly changes. Just want quick sales instead of proper account management since leadership from other brands sage bought have come in. Feels like a toxic place to work which is sad because it was once amazing. Hard to do well and feel like we are all constantly under performing. No wonder so many colleagues are leaving / off on long term sick. No trust in colleagues anymore and it can be felt

Pros

Sage used to be a great place to work, benefits, management, at one stage the whole operation was entirely Irish based- unfortunately things went downhill fast as soon as the UK stepped in

Cons

This is not the company to be in sales in. Especially in Ireland.

Pros

The salary and benefits are competitive, and Sage does an impressive job of maintaining a polished external image that hides the internal chaos. From the outside, it can appear like a stable, forward-looking company – a stark contrast to the experience on the inside.

Cons

Sage is an extremely negative work environment, plagued by poor morale and a lack of clear direction. The company is struggling to redefine itself as a SaaS provider while remaining heavily dependent on its legacy software, which continues to generate the bulk of its revenue. This tension creates confusion and inconsistency across teams, with little alignment or vision from leadership. It’s a frustrating place to work if you’re looking for innovation, clarity, or genuine progress.
