Vantaggi

I genuinely enjoy my job and feel lucky to work with such a talented team. I have ownership of my projects and get to be both creative and analytical in my day-to-day work. The office location is convenient for me, which has become even more important with the recent hybrid changes. The yearly bonus for hitting targets is also a nice incentive.

Svantaggi

The salary isn't competitive, and opportunities for progression are very limited unless someone leaves the team. Even then, internal competition is high, so it could take years to move up. There's an unspoken expectation to go 'above and beyond' just to be considered for promotion, even if you're already performing exceptionally well. Ongoing lay-offs and constant restructuring create a persistent sense of uncertainty, which affects morale across the business. There is a hybrid workplan in place meaning we need to be in the office 3 days per week now, and although it's flexible, some have been given set days to come in by their managers which seems unfair. I do really feel for other employees especially those with childcare and caring responsibilities. Managers are now tracking IP addresses to understand who is not adhering to the new policy which has sparked mixed feelings. Recent internal comms have criticised employees for “wasting energy” by challenging the hybrid framework - yet significant time and resources are being spent building dashboards to track office attendance. It feels like the focus has shifted from supporting productivity and wellbeing to simply managing physical presence.

Vantaggi

Working at Sage these past 4 years has been both rewarding and energizing. I’ve really valued the opportunity to collaborate with talented teams across the business while helping evolve our Developer Content organization into a broader developer experience and AI-enabled function. One of the most meaningful parts of the experience has been seeing how open people are to innovation, collaboration, and continuous improvement. It’s been exciting to contribute to initiatives that improve both internal workflows and the experience for our developer community. I’m grateful for the relationships, growth opportunities, and trust I’ve been given throughout the year, and I’m looking forward to what’s ahead.

Svantaggi

With so much innovation and transformation happening across the company, priorities can evolve quickly — but it also creates exciting opportunities to learn, adapt, and contribute to meaningful change.

Vantaggi

-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

Svantaggi

-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
