Pluspunten

Nice offices, benefits. Progressive HR toward benefits.

Minpunten

Employee and customer suggestions for product improvements are often ignored. Features and release cycles are not based on the needs I heard from customers and the channel. Inside sales people (selling only one product in the portfolio) attempt to sell large installations and then ask for help in designing and implementing. Often this means getting help from development people or channel people they competed with. Yet our motto was that the customer came first.

Pluspunten

-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

Minpunten

-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
