Strong organization with sales concerns.

Anonymous employee

Business Outlook

Pros

Excellent core products, strong name recognition. Generous pay and benefits, plus free breakfast once a month.

Cons

Very little attention to professional development, sales leadership is more or less clueless about how the process is actually run. Draconian adherence to broken internal business led to a ridiculous level of admin work in sales. Low sales morale and high turnover made it hard to plan.

Good company, good people, tough on non-German employees

Business Outlook

Pros

Great people, great products, great benefits, some positions with work-at-home options. Good work-to-life balance.

Cons

German company forced to RIF in the U.S. on a regular basis to meet their bottom line (it is more difficult to RIF in Germany). Talent or contribution of employees being released is not considered. I would recommend working at SAG to any U.S. citizen who is willing to deal with the huge regular possibility of being let go in order to experience the really great benefits of working at SAG -- especially someone young enough to adjust easily after being RIFed.
