Pros

Some good people left, some good benefits at the Newcastle office there is an on site gym. Food is ok and good cafe.

Cons

Going through a lot of change, while change is needed doesn't feel like people are being thought about and just seen as a number. Jobs seem to be moving to London.

Thanks for your feedback. We have amazing colleagues at Sage and our benefits are great (we've just won an award for them too!) The Newcastle food offering is fantastic with plenty of choice and good value for money too. Having an on-site gym is amazing, free parking and a cool place to have a walk (or as some colleagues do - a run) at lunch time to get some fresh air. Change is not easy for everyone and we value our colleagues and treat them as individuals. At Sage the welfare of our colleagues is incredibly important to us. Colleagues have access to the support services available through our Colleague Assistance Programme. Whether worried about an incident or there is something else on your mind, the Colleague Assistance Programme offers a confidential and free to call 24-hour support line, staffed by qualified counsellors. Sage will only revert to a redundancy situation when all other avenues have been exhausted. Those affected are fully supported and are referred to other roles across the business. We have two offices in London (London Bridge and The Angel). The London Bridge one is relatively new. The majority of hiring in the UK still takes place in Newcastle but we advertise in all locations and hire wherever the best talent is. Thanks for your feedback.

Thanks for reviewing Sage and sorry to hear that when you were here your experiences were not great. Our people leaders are key to Sage and having great leaders in place inspires us and makes a difference, that's why all our people leaders are undertaking the Leading at Sage’ programme which will aim to develop the skills and behaviours of all 2,000 Sage Managers. Our ambition is to ensure that every day our Managers challenge and support our colleagues to do their best. We want Managers to quickly identify and address low levels of performance and recognize and appreciate those that go ‘above and beyond’. We hope that this counteracts some of the negativity you describe in your review, as managers continue to improve their ability to spot this type of behaviour. Thanks again for your feedback and best wishes with your career.
