Pros

Great benefits and overall management is good. My personal manager seems to care a lot about how I feel and run for my best interests.

Cons

Upper management is trying to enforce some ideas on colleagues that aren't based on colleagues' best interests and then state that they did it because it is "what we wanted" but don't actually tell us the real reason behind the decision. Feedback shows otherwise. Everyone is being "pushed" to get back into the office 3 days a week and there are apparently no exceptions for people who were hired with a promising 1 day on-site work week and are now struggling with having to drive for over 3 hours and managing child care. Sage doesn't seem to care too much because this is "non-debatable". Numbers are good and morale seemed high in the last 3 years when practically everyone was at home and went to the office once or twice a week. A blanket rule that affects everyone seems unfair.

Pros

Amazing people to work with

Cons

Sage values: Human: untrue, Sage does not care Trust: many employees have lost any trust they may have had recently Bold: yes it is probably bold to expect employees to commute for double the time and travel costs because operations felt like closing a local office while leaving other remote offices open. It’s also bold to give one of the reasons for this closure as wanting to create a great office vibe, while expecting a whole department to suddenly commute to another city. Simplify: the company sure simplified things for themselves by closing certain offices and burdening their employees with extra costs for commuting as well as taking time away from their families

We appreciate your feedback and have read through your comments. Please note that our hybrid working approach is an important element of the way we work at Sage that is complemented by other benefits such as paid time to volunteer, the ability to work away for up to 10 weeks a year and free well-being support tools. We recently also answered several colleagues' questions about the new 3-day policy. In doing so, we've shed more light on how colleagues will be supported as they adhere to our updated hybrid structure. More information about what we offer can be found here https://www.glassdoor.co.uk/Benefits/Sage-United-Kingdom-Benefits-EI_IE1150.0,4_IL.5,19_IN2.htm - Thanks for taking the time to leave your review. We’ll continue to work hard to improve how we enable colleagues to thrive.
