Sage reviews

Flexibility of hours within the organisation, the team are approachable. There are resources in place for self development and training

Stability and longevity of a mature company, but agile enough to compete alongside tech startups. Good emphasis on innovation and more autonomy than you'd expect from such a big company. For many roles, 35-hour workweek (in the UK) with core hours of 10-4 and the expectation that 5 of your daily 7 hours are main work and the remaining 2 are admin and other tasks — very reasonable expectations and promotes a good work-life balance. Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) is much, much more than a tickboxing exercise. Sage Foundation is a core part of the Sage ethos and staff are encouraged and supported in all regions across the world to volunteer and help their communities. Excellent policies and social infrastructure mean that there are robust systems in place to assist employees with any issues, from HR to IT to career progression and way beyond. This was evident to me during my application process and has only gotten better! Many, many employees have worked here for 5, 10, or 15+ years. It speaks well of the company and also means there are some fantastic key contacts all over the business who can help with just about anything. Always meeting someone new! There is a LOT of capacity to move, change and grow with Sage. Many people switch roles, explore different parts of the business and develop their skills in new areas.
