Pros

Where to Start, from day one you feel part of the Sage family. right from the top the communication is clear. you will never be in the dark. as well as a fantastic salary, you will also review unrivaled benefits inc, healthcare package, discounts off thousands of retailers, salary sacrifice, save and share schemes and many more. the development opportunities are great. amazing on site facilities, range from cafe's to on site gym to the little things like secure onsite parking. Sage Foundation is also another bonus. you get 5 volunteer days to use each year and the choice is your on what you do with them, from helping customer with innovative payroll and accountancy solution, to giving back to the community, what more could you want

Cons

Pros

Sage takes its responsibilities towards its people very seriously, the company invests a huge amount of time in developing & coaching others, investing in colleagues' personal development whilst also sponsoring company wide mentoring programmes to ensure all colleagues can develop. There is a strong 'customer' ethos across the company and colleagues are empowered to do the right thing for customers in all circumstances. I am fortunate enough to have started at Sage over 12 years ago and feel immensely proud to work for an organisation that puts customers & their people at the heart of their strategy.

Cons

The company is going through a huge transformation at the moment, my only aspiration is for this transformation to execute at a quicker pace so we can really shift the needle in all of the areas we are planning to. We are all playing our part in the transformation adding to the inclusiveness colleagues feel towards the strategy.

Thanks for your feedback. We couldn't agree with you more about the amazing opportunities Sage give its people - and at all levels. As you say, we care for our people a great deal and this is shown every day through interaction with us from our leaders, our processes and how we get things done - as well as all the amazing careers and learning & development opportunities available. As you say, we are extremely customer focused - as our CEO, Stephen Kelly, often to refers to it - "customer obsession" - this is really clear to us all. Yes, we do want the transformation to be quicker - this will make a difference to all our colleagues and customers alike...already it has made a massive positive change, so it will be exciting to see the end results when we get there. Thanks again for the feedback. Congratulations on your 12 years at Sage - long may they continue and keep loving #LifeatSage!
