      Pros

      Lots of nice friendly people who are trying their best. New CEO has great passion. Huge potential but just challenged to realise this.

      Cons

      To many managers and to much staff from long time and only workers were redundant

      Thanks for your review, we always appreciate feedback. Really great to hear our Spanish colleagues are as friendly as in other Sage locations – we pride ourselves on friendly, passionate employees. Yes, our CEO Stephen Kelly has driven a new energy into our organisation and his vision for the future is exciting. Thank you for sharing your ideas and perspectives, and we encourage everyone to continue to do so - its employees (or, as in your case, ex-colleague) like you that make this a great place to work. Feel free to give us more feedback by email on glassdoor@sage.com

      Obsolete company in Spain offices

      Business Outlook

      Pros

      - Intensive days for summer (july / august) - Intensive fridays - Bonus (although it is not clear at all)

      Cons

      - You can't grow up in the company. No new projects or if they create new projects, old manager from other projects are move into. - You have a lot of problems to raise your salary. No opportunities and they don't promote you, although you are doing your best and improving continuosly the product. - A lot of meetings saying "nothing", elderly people saying "we are working on it!, we are following our goal". But at the end, you don't see the results in your bonus or salary - 2 days per week at the office without option to change it. They only want to see people in the office, but they don't think about your situation. - You can't decide nothing without your "manager" approval. When your manager thinks that the company is their, you have a big problem to fight for your or your team. You receive only empty words, it means, they promise you they are doing all in their hands, but it is not true. - We are working with OKR, but the objectives are not related with your work or you can't do anything to achieve it. Only you waste your time in the LEAD meetings. They are useless, they are not reflected in your salary, bonus...

      Thank you for your feedback and we are very sorry that you are not feeling more positively about your experience with us. With regard to growth, we have invested heavily in a new platform, the Talent Marketplace that has been set to give colleagues access to a myriad of personal and professional opportunities like never before. We appreciate that the resource is still fairly new but we encourage you to explore more of what it can offer you. There are projects being advertised constantly in the form of what we are calling 'gigs.' These should give you the opportunity to really showcase your skills, learn new skills and develop your expertise but also these gigs put you in contact with new colleagues from all over the business which builds your network. We are also encouraging our colleagues to simplify the way they work and this includes scrutinising the need for meetings to ensure that time is spent wisely and equates to productivity. Our hybrid working framework is essential to enhancing team and cross-functional collaboration amongst colleagues but also, it is at the heart of our culture being that we are a human-centric organisation. We strongly believe in the power of that human connection. If you have any other lingering concerns about the model of working, please speak to your manager or wider team or you could contact us at colleaguesurvey@sage.com We also encourage you to speak to your manager about your concerns about your OKRs and your desire to have more control over making certain decisions in your work. If you do not feel comfortable speaking with them, please reach out to your wider team or to us through the email above because we want to ensure you are being supported and set up to thrive. We truly appreciate you taking the time to leave your remarks and we hope to keep hearing from you regularly so that we can knock down barriers for you to succeed more and more every time!

      Forcing devs to work from the office.

      Business Outlook

      Pros

      You have necessary time for developing. Working with people with good knowledges. Quit flexible about vacations.

      Cons

      Work from the office at least 2 days per week and this can be increased. Current management don't understand benefits of time management to work in team offline. Current management don't understand that not everybody has personal car to get to the office. You don't receive benefits automatically, you need to search where to get your restaurants/transport tickets. A lot of meeting that could be skipped. Sage Foundation distractions
