Terrible Pay Benefits - receding salary y-o-y

Anonymous employee

Pros

Great People who are always willing to help and give their best work. You will end up working and staying at Sage more for the people you work with!

Cons

High performance culture is starting to feel like exploitation. Endless admin, not enough time to do the real work, and then after-hours just to stay afloat. We innovate, we improve, but we’re not recognised. Sage demands our full worth, but isn't willing to pay for it (they cap your salary and tell you that you have reached your salary band - which you have no sight of - and will do nothing to assist the situation. So your salary receeds annually vs grows - creating an under inflation salary whilst times get tougher). Benefits are not the same and are inconsistent. I.e. Leave and also Maternity benefits. They will give you the bear minimum based on local labour regulations vs offer a standard approach accross. They can learn from their UK-based Virgin company which does for ALL their employees.
