Pros

There are still some hard working and customer focused people left and want to make a difference Intacct is still a top financial and accounting software solution

Cons

Intacct was a thriving and growing company with one of the smartest go to market strategies that I've seen. The leadership was strategic, customer focused and truly cared about employees. It had one of the best corporate cultures that I've ever worked in. Once Intacct was absorbed into Sage, everything changed in a complete 180 degrees. Decisions from leadership are made spontaneously without warning, reason or logic, and with very little or no communication. The Intacct culture of customer focus and business growth clashes with the Sage culture of just "checking boxes". I've watched top down decisions made without input or proper information that were detrimental to customers and the business overall. There's constant change for changes sake, and frequent layoffs. Discombulated people that are left are demoralized, especially those that came from the Intacct culture.

Pros

Decent Benefits, time off and comfortable work environment

Cons

They do not recognize the talent they have within and talented people are forced to leave. It is all about who likes you to get a promotion opportunity, not who is the most qualified. It was not until I left Sage, did I realize how underpaid we were and I was a top earner at Sage as far as I could tell. The job is a mix of technical,networking and business knowledge. It's like they want to keep employees not knowing their real market value for their skills

Pros

Loved working with my immediate co-workers. We all struggled together. Benefits were pretty good.

Cons

Management across the ocean does not understand US needs. Major decisions made without having the knowledge base or systems to support them. Concerns about risks with compliance and employee pay ignored by upper management. More concerned with bringing new people in than keeping existing employees. In the last 10 years my performance always met or exceeded expectations, and I received the full "potential" annual bonus only twice.
