Passive aggressive doesn't BEGIN to describe it

Pros

The company's mission and products are solid and the business leadership is basically sound. Good health benefits.

Cons

The culture at SAGE is so cliquey and passive aggressive as to be corrosive. If you run afoul of the gossip-mongers and tone police, it can be a very uncomfortable place to work. A lot of lip service is paid to giving everyone a voice and a stake, but ultimately, traditions and protocol are what really count.

Pros

Work from home, Benefits. Time off at Christmas.

Cons

Micromanagers galore. Not hired to think, only follow chaotic or punitive direction---if you get that target on your back, watch out. Want specifics? Meeting w your customers behind your back- Usurping your relationships? Underhanded threats? Feigned care? Do this or else. People fearing for their jobs? Anxiety high not knowing what to expect. Management coming in groups of 3-5 to meet with your one customer... No management accountability. No processes to make jobs easier, that would make too much sense. Management does what management wants. Women who pander get promoted, and ironically- the Patriarchal hierarchy is alive and well!

Pros

Amazing health care benefits (genuinely can’t knock them for that) Coworkers on the same level are sometimes supportive of each other Good mission If you’re mid-upper management and you have kids, this will be a nice place to stay for while because you get reasonable flexibility, good benefits, and upper management often delegates stressful tasks to mid-low employees. If you’re fresh out of college, stay a year, get some experience, and leave because the trajectory for upward movement is gone.

Cons

The “kind” culture is really passive aggressive Promotions don’t always make sense/kiss ups get moved up Middle management sucks Lack of work/life balance Low-mid level employees have low pay Little upward mobility Lack of diversity SAGE Perform to track feedback feels superficial and borderline like a tattletale system that employees are forced to use 401k profit sharing instead of matching
