Pros

4 weeks vacation from the start. Good luck trying to use it though!

Cons

Abusive management practices - a senior level employee berated me about one of my work products. She claimed that I must have been lying on my resume because she thought my work was dismal. I had never received a critique like that on any work product in any other job. Cliquish environment. SageSure's confidence and poise is at best un-earned, and at worst disingenuous. SageSure acts like it is doing some noble cause and changing the world; in reality it is serving a niche market of home insurance - luxury properties primarily in high-risk coastal areas. So you are actively enabling millionaires + billionaires to build and maintain ostentatious properties where they never should have been built in the first place. Cultish adherence to their values. SageSure places an inordinate amount of time on its values, one of which, I kid you not is, "We Don't Try". Valuable time that could be spent developing their second-rate tech stack or actually servicing clients gets tossed aside for pointless sessions talking about their culture. Intense sense of risk-aversion and conservatism. For a company that professes to be forward looking and transformational, SageSure is just another insurance company where people stay in their lane, put in their years of service and try to stay under the radar until retirement. There was an effort from the younger employees to make changes, but I don't see them having much success unfortunately. Marketing Ignorance. During my tenure the only "Direct To Consumer" marketing we did was a company LinkedIn page, and some half-hearted display campaigns. This was in 2019 and they didn't have a consumer facing Facebook page! Absolutely astounding how behind the times they were. Senior management would claim that the regulations around insurance are what prevented them from having a Facebook page - funny every other major insurance producer was able to do so!

Title: Toxic Work Culture and Discrimination: Poor Work-Life Balance and Incompetent Upper Management at SageSure Rating: ★☆☆☆☆ (1/5 stars) My time at SageSure was deeply troubling, marked by an unsettling lack of work-life balance and a hostile work environment. The excessive workload took a toll on my well-being, leaving me physically and mentally drained. However, the most distressing aspect was the blatant discrimination displayed by upper management, which led to the departure of three highly competent female managers. The appointment of a male team member who consistently discriminated against female colleagues and verbally demeaned them was a shocking and unacceptable decision. This unfortunate choice by upper management only fueled a toxic atmosphere, where fear and mistrust prevailed among the team. The departure of three skilled female managers further highlighted the severity of the issue, leaving behind a void that was never adequately addressed. In light of these disturbing experiences, I must urge potential employees to think twice before considering SageSure as an employer. The combination of poor work-life balance and an incompetent upper management team perpetuates an environment that fosters discrimination and undermines the well-being of its employees. I hope this review serves as a warning for the company to address these issues immediately, fostering a more inclusive, respectful, and supportive workplace culture.
