Pros

Good Benefits, such as Save and Share, Tech Scheme etc. Majority of Staff are Friendly

Cons

Communication is poor Survey sent to determine staff satisfaction is rarely acted upon Rewards for sales part of the role has gone downhill and not worth doing Despite being hybrid working, feeling more and more forced into office Lack of progression if you’re not a big personality

Pros

The only positive is the pay, which is very competitive for a SaaS company.

Cons

An entire company built of facade and presenteeism. Sage is focused on showcasing itself as a good place to work over actually providing a supportive, innovative working environment. To be a protected characteristic in this organisation is to be showcased for events and occasions and ‘celebrated’, then marginalised the rest of the time. The hierarchy and managerial styles are toxic and often bullying.

Pros

Experience is completed related to your team and manager. Some teams are great and some are VERY TOXIC. Benefits are ok. Sustainability goals are great. Sage Foundation and volunteer days are great!

Cons

Constant layoffs. Constant changes to orgs based on the ever revolving door of executives. Constant brand changes. Decisions based on whims and egos instead of data. Bring creative in-house, then get rid of almost everyone 3 years later, then bring them back 2 years later, etc. - constant pendulum. Turned very British company - if you aren't in the UK - you don't matter. If you are in the UK, you might have a better experience.
