Pros

Prestige company in the north east. Plenty of opportunities to develop your career Good pay and bonuses Always been hugely supportive with personal issues.

Cons

Too many people seem to believe they are owed a living from the company. Beliefs like positivity and being for change, are seen as negatives by some long term employees "that's not how it used to be" is a stock phrase

Thanks for your feedback. It's great to hear your positivity shine through! Sage's roots are firmly in the North-East of England as that's where we were founded over 30 years ago. The North Park campus is fantastic and has a fab vibe, and the people are great. As one profound philosopher once said "the only constant is change" - being the biggest Tech company in the FTSE100 we have to be smart and lead the change and leapfrog the competition. This is clearly something you enjoy - which is great and you'll thrive at Sage. Thanks for your feedback and keep loving #LifeatSage!

Thanks for your feedback. So pleased to hear such positives things about Sage - our people are fantastic; having great colleagues cannot be under-estimated in terms of the positive impact it has every day you are at Sage. We have a high-performance culture and the rewards can be fantastic. The Reward Team work hard to ensure all our colleagues receive market-rate pay, this along with rewards/benefits means Sage is a great place to work. It's always an interesting question regarding communication. In a company of 13,000 colleagues in over 20 countries, it can be difficult to achieve. Saying that, we have taken great strides to improve this. From the regular Sage Live TV broadcast to YourSage, our brand new global intranet. Regarding your specific question around corporate objectives, go to YourSage and type VSGM (vision, strategy, goals, measures) in the search box. You'll see our CEO, Stephen Kelly's VSGM which filters down to all of us through our goal-setting. You will clearly see from this what our corporate objectives are. I hope that helps. Thanks again for your review.

Thanks for your feedback about Sage. We take pride in our learning & development at Sage - there's everything from classroom based training, mentoring and 1000s of hours of training via Linda.com...we are always looking for ways to improve developing our people. Work Life Balance is something we encourage and for most, it works very well at Sage. I guess some jobs will have travel, but saying that we have invested heavily in Telepresence and Skype for Business which has reduced the amount of travelling significantly. I hope all works out well for you and thanks again for your review.
