Pros

Good benefits and some very loyal colleagues. Good to see Sage software pushing boundaries again

Cons

Sage are no longer passionate about their own people. The have all the right PR and policies but most employees are disallusioned. They claimed to smash silos and then built more. The gap between senior management and the workforce is huge

Thanks for your feedback. Having just watched our CEO's message for the new fiscal year, Stephen Kelly thanked us for the recent feedback we gave through the colleague survey. We made it clear we want greater clarity on delivery and how each of us can make a difference. Also, our new interim CPO, Amanda Cusdin said last week that she wants to ensure employee engagement is top of her list. The new fiscal year starts off with kick-offs at each and every Sage office (this is happening right now). Between our CEO, Stephen Kelly and our President, Blair Crump, every colleague will understand what the VSGM is (vision, strategy, goals & metrics). Last year was the year of the business builder and FY18 is the year of business cloud, with simplification and customer obsession at the heart of everything we do. Through colleague goals, everyone will understand how they will make a difference and help deliver our vision. There's so much learning & development for all colleagues - from the Leading@Sage programme for all people leaders - there's also Linda.com. This is a vast library of engaging video tutorials to meet professional and personal development goals. Colleague can access these courses - even outside of working hours--it's available to colleagues 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, from any device. With Lynda, our people can •Track their learning •Save and prioritise courses •Set their own pace •Access courses in English, French, German, or Spanish - this is how determined we are to ensure our colleagues flourish and build a great career.

Thanks for your review. Great to hear you had a positive work life balance when you were at Sage and you enjoyed our benefits - which isn't surprising as this year we won an award "Most engaging benefits proposition". We take comments about bullying seriously and have internal systems/processes in place to deal with any such instances. Our transition to One Sage has been an important change for us and we are seeing the benefits of the changes. We have learnt important lessons along the way too. Change can be uncomfortable for some people, which we understand, and we do all we can to support our people through the necessary transformation. Thanks again for your review.
