Pros

The team there is really good. you can work with a young dynamic team!

Cons

Everything! From the internal systems to payroll to management and leadership, this company is a mess... I do not know how they keep working for this long with the level of chaos that exists at all levels. If you want to go back to the 80s in terms of management this is the place for you :)

Thanks for your review. Sorry to hear you have had a few issues - we at Sage, understand how important it is for colleagues to be happy and engaged. We recognised there were some issues in Dublin so we introduced an employee engagement team, that have now called themselves ‘Kaizen’. These were people voted for by the CBC employees. Kaizen are working with the HR and leadership team, as the voice of the people to help to drive better engagement. This, alongside the brand new leadership programme where all 2000+ people leaders at Sage will follow a module based programme to ensure our leaders are the best people leaders. Thanks again for your feedback and hope you'll see improvements soon.

Land grabbing. Back biting. Old boys club.

Pros

Great benefits. 5 volunteering days is a great way of giving to the community and staff. Pension is top tier.

Cons

Poor leadership. Unwillingness to accept negative truths. So much doesn't get reported past EVP. Unstructured matrix organisation. Massive employee churn.

Thanks for writing your review about Sage. We are pleased to hear the our benefits work for you and the Sage Foundation is fantastic isn't it! As said on yesterday's Sage Live TV, we are rolling out the Leading for Leaders Programme at Sage next month; leadership is not a set of HR processes – it is taking colleagues on a journey through their time at Sage, supporting, challenging and guiding them. It's an amazing development leadership programme for all ‘people managers’ at Sage – 1,700 leaders. It will make a real difference to all of our colleagues at Sage, regardless of level. Transformation at Sage has been a positive challenge for many colleagues but recognise it's not for everyone, so attrition will increase. We have plans to increase internal recruitment and soon our global intranet 'Your Sage' will be launched with a brand new careers section aimed at helping colleagues make the most of themselves and their career. Also, later on this year we will launch our colleague survey across Sage. Thanks again for writing your review.
