Pros

Sage proclaims it is a human company and IT IS. Human is at the heart of everything we do, internally or externally. There is a real sense of caring and ensuring people are well in their job. DEI is a also real matter at Sage and makes me highly proud of working for a company that puts such importance on these matters. I do believe that from a human perspective, working at Sage makes me a better manager.

Cons

Communication flows can sometimes be complicated and hard to follow / create misunderstandings. Can do better on sustainability matters, need to accelerate transformation.

Pros

-Pay’s decent -Benefits are solid -The Sage Foundation feels like proper philanthropy -Some genuinely nice people -If you’re happy treating work as just a payslip and don’t mind things being a bit dull, Sage is actually quite a comfortable place to be. That stability is a real perk

Cons

-Far too many layers of middle management and general bureaucracy -The Ai push is getting a bit daft -Not especially innovative, so the work can feel quite uninspiring. I’m grateful to be employed, but if you’re after something more interesting, Sage will probably disappoint. That said, some people prefer it that way, fair enough -The office / hybrid requirements feel a bit pointless -Sage doesn’t tend to do layoffs, which is good, but it does mean there are quite a few people where you’re not entirely sure what they do. A lot of meetings, essentially. Even the positives come with trade-offs
