Pros

A few of the people who work at Sage are qualified and want to do a good job and provide good customer service.

Cons

Top management is constantly changing focus and direction- no clear vision. They have laid off a lot of people recently who had a wealth of experience. Because of those exits, Sage now has a huge gap in productivity and direction.

Thank you for your feedback and taking the time to write a review. We agree with you that our people are fantastic and are committed to doing a great job - from creating innovative new products for our customers, to marketing and selling them and offering superb customer service. Our vision is laid out by our CEO, Stephen Kelly and through his VSGM (vision, strategy, goals and metrics), all of us set our own goals to ensure we are all aligned. Having said that, change is constant and we are continuing to make changes to ensure we better serve our customers. Your insight is invaluable and will help us to continue to strive to do better. Thanks again.

Pros

I just wish the integrity and experience level of the leaders was actually what they project to the world.

Cons

When I started at this company I had high hopes. I quickly learned that the things you are told when you are hired are simply false. The way this company is structured and managed is a nightmare. Currently, the managers setup up so you cant meet goals and unrealistic expectations. The employees get no encouragement only extreme pressure and condescending attitudes. So many of us dread walking it the door.

Pros

Good people (although this is very sadly shrinking) Good employee benefits Some good junior managers

Cons

Bad working culture. Under Steve Kelly after the restructure in December no direction. Mass redundancies then exit of knowledgeable, specialist, passionate people. High stress, inappropriate unachievable deadlines with little or no resources people/tech. Cutting costs to the point we cannot function, while wasting money on meaningless prestige, hiring half a floor in the Shard. Do not recognise/reward specialists. Ever decreasing respect/treatment of staff. The CEO Steve Kelly standing next to Richard Branson at the Sage Summit as a status symbol when implementing the exact opposite of Bransons ethos.... putting staff first.
