Land grabbing. Back biting. Old boys club.

Pros

Great benefits. 5 volunteering days is a great way of giving to the community and staff. Pension is top tier.

Cons

Poor leadership. Unwillingness to accept negative truths. So much doesn't get reported past EVP. Unstructured matrix organisation. Massive employee churn.

Thanks for writing your review about Sage. We are pleased to hear the our benefits work for you and the Sage Foundation is fantastic isn't it! As said on yesterday's Sage Live TV, we are rolling out the Leading for Leaders Programme at Sage next month; leadership is not a set of HR processes – it is taking colleagues on a journey through their time at Sage, supporting, challenging and guiding them. It's an amazing development leadership programme for all ‘people managers’ at Sage – 1,700 leaders. It will make a real difference to all of our colleagues at Sage, regardless of level. Transformation at Sage has been a positive challenge for many colleagues but recognise it's not for everyone, so attrition will increase. We have plans to increase internal recruitment and soon our global intranet 'Your Sage' will be launched with a brand new careers section aimed at helping colleagues make the most of themselves and their career. Also, later on this year we will launch our colleague survey across Sage. Thanks again for writing your review.

Pros

They offer some good benefits and although they don't stay long they seem to attract quality people. They donate time and money to charities even if it is only to try and boost their brand.

Cons

No direction, revolving door for leadership so nothing has the chance to work, favouritism for certain locations, corporate greed, constant re-orgs so everyone is terrified about their job, poor communication, people are afraid to speak their minds for fear of being fired, no opportunity for growth. Employees are expendable and not an asset to the company.
