A strange culture and a busy place

Anonymous employee

Pros

Pay and benefits are reasonable for the area. Good on-site facilities (canteen, coffee shops, parking). Working for a global organisation you can deal with interesting overseas issues, depending on which department you work in.

Cons

Sage's culture is one of the oddest I have experienced. There is very little investment from the top in ensuring a positive people culture. This means that any given employee's experience of Sage will be largely based on luck i.e. what kind of line manager they end up working for.

Thanks for your review. Pleased to read the pay & benefits work well for you and the facilities we provide are well received. Life at Sage is always interesting as well as challenging - we don't hide from the fact it can be hard, but it’ll be a rewarding one and leaving your comfort zone will help you grow in belief and as a person. It would be great to get some context about what you mean about deficiencies in the hiring process? Feel free to give me some further feedback - glassdoor@sage.com. I am delighted to say there is a project currently underway to improve our global on-boarding process - we do have an on-boarding portal for new starters (and before you start) to help new colleagues settle in quickly into their new roles. Thanks again for your review.

Thank you for your feedback. Sorry things didn't work out for you at Sage. We have awesome products at Sage as you say and what makes them so great are our developers, product developers, our sales teams, our technical support teams and all the support teams too. Whether that's in US, UK, Australia, France, Brazil etc - we are one Sage and despite the recent challenges which came from the need to transform the business, our dedicated people continue to make, support, market and sell great tech. Sometimes we get stuff wrong, we are not perfect, but we listen and learn and remedy the situation. Let's take the new Leading for Leaders programme - a suite of modules all our people leaders will do (plus new leaders coming into the business). We want to ensure our leaders lead from the front, do the right thing and ensure our colleagues receive great coaching from them. Our people will see the difference once this programme is bedded in. Thanks for your feedback and good luck for the future.

Unfair Practices and Lack of Knowledgable Management

Business Outlook

Pros

Benefits are GREAT, and that's it

Cons

Management is UNFAIR and lacks proper managerial skills. Interview was VERY misleading. No room for growth. Work-Life Balance is a JOKE. Forced to take FULL PTO days. Management is not open to ideas that would benefit the department. Overall this department is AWFUL due to management practices. This is a CALL CENTER!!
