Pros

Great work life balance and a company that really cares about its employees. Great opportunities for progression for all - Diversity is a priority.

Cons

Tends to be a lot of change and messaging at times can be confused although most change is driven by business need or market dynamics.

Thanks for sharing your feedback on Glassdoor. Worklife balance is something which is so important to achieve at work and we are really pleased to hear this is something you can get whilst working here - a lot of comments refer to the positive WLB. Our colleagues are awesome, committed and they are a credit to Sage and make us so proud and absolutely agree with you about diversity at Sage. This really happens here, it's not just talk, we walk to talk. Yes, there has been a lot of change of late (for all the right reasons) and we have learnt from some of the mistakes we have made... we do get things wrong sometimes. We acknowledge it, learn and move forward so we are stronger and better. Thanks again.

Transformation & change..... it's all good!

Pros

Sage has been going through a transformation and lots of change for a while and it's still ongoing. I've noticed some reviews on here suggesting this is a negative thing for the company. Seriously though, for a company to survive (especially a tech business) constant change is inevitable and expected. If we don't have constant change and adapt real-time then we will decline - if you're not a fan of change then don't work for an innovative tech business! The transformation of the business is so exciting providing lots of opportunities. What I love most is that there is a strong feeling that the drive behind the constant change is not just to drive profit (that's often seen as a secondary) it's about really making a real difference to everyone Sage comes in contact with..... that may be through the Sage Foundation supporting local communities and projects (we're actively encouraged to use all 5 of our volunteer days!), supporting entrepreneurs passing on great business advice and sharing best practice and tools they can use, supporting Invictus Games, providing fantastic opportunities for apprentices in many business areas, actively encouraging personal development and skill improvement whether that be through our mentor program or independently through Lynda.com and there's lots more going on too!

Cons

Many colleagues in our business are doing really great things and I don't think this is always shared and communicated as much as it could be.
