Nice company to work for

Pros

Great company to work for. I got the chance to work on new project about a REST API. There is no architect, everyone is involved to decide about the technologies, and they do agile great.

Cons

The communication with the manger is sometimes a bit fuzzy.

Thank you for taking your time to write your review. As a current colleague, you know our values include Innovate, Make a Difference and Do the Right thing, so it’s fantastic to hear these are being played out. Colleagues always talk about empowerment at Sage and that it’s exciting and challenging – it sounds like you experience that first-hand! Communication is something we are constantly striving to improve, so hopefully you have seen some improvements already and this will continue to get better over time. Thanks once again and if you would like to discuss further, please email us at glassdoor@sage.com

Well Looked After

Pros

Great place to work. Everything you'd expect of a FTSE 100 company. Passionate about local roots and customers from small to enterprise

Cons

Personally I have found that once at manager level it's hard to progress as there are professional roles which require experience, or Leadership roles which are a big jump which isn't frequent or likely.

Thank you for taking your time to write a review. We would agree with you that Sage is a great company to work for and the passion it has for its history, roots and customers is evident in everything we do. Our colleagues are fantastic too! We are working hard to improve how we identify and promote talent at Sage. The Sage Talent Review recognises high potential talent and helps future stars achieve their ambitions. We also help colleagues develop themselves and all colleagues are encouraged to have a personal development plan to help their managers understand their career ambitions. I am not sure if you have done this already, if you have not talk to your manager or your HRBP / People Business Partner. There is also further guidance on personal development available on Lynda.com via Sage Academy. We want you to achieve your career ambitions and be the best you can be. If you want further guidance please email us at Glassdoor@sage.com and we would be happy to help. Thanks again for the review.

Thanks for taking time to write your review. As a current colleague, you are aware we are undertaking a period of organisational change to make us stronger, better and more customer focused than ever before. We are right at the start of our journey, it can take time for these changes to bed down and become part of everyday working life at Sage. As we continue to perform and transform we’ll continue to innovate and deliver great cloud-based products for our customers. For example, recent announcements show our commitment to this – our partnership with Fairsail to integrate finance and HCM within X3. Also the announcement of our free app for iPhone and iPad which simplifies expense management. As Stephen Kelly recently said “we have been recognised by top application developers who have said our technology is incredible and a real game charger.” Thanks for taking time to write your review, if you’d like to discuss this further, please contact us at Glassdoor@sage.com
