Pros

Not too demanding, not too difficult, pay is very decent, fun social activities every month or so, charity work with Sage Foundation is very rewarding, supportive team, competent leadership, lots of training provided

Cons

Unpaid overtime expectations (can be refused but you'll lose respect), occasional mandatory meetings after 6pm, daily mandatory meetings 10 minutes before 9am.

Thanks for your review. It’s great to read our pay works well for you and that you enjoy the social activities – we can see from #LifeatSage on Instagram that our colleagues in Kuala Lumpur certainly seem to enjoy themselves. Sage Foundation is fantastic in that our colleagues can spend up to 5 days a year to volunteer for charities of their choice and the team in Malaysia do a lot of this – well and an thank you! In Sage, we offer flexible work hour arrangement to our employees. We encourage you to discuss with your manager on a mutually acceptable alternative work schedule. As part of our Sage Way to ensure all new hires have a meaningful onboarding experience, we are diligent in ensuring that they are well-equipped and trained to be 100% ready to support our customers/partners. We thank you for your feedback and be assured that we will continue to thrive to make our employee experience an exceptional one.

Pros

Prestige company in the north east. Plenty of opportunities to develop your career Good pay and bonuses Always been hugely supportive with personal issues.

Cons

Too many people seem to believe they are owed a living from the company. Beliefs like positivity and being for change, are seen as negatives by some long term employees "that's not how it used to be" is a stock phrase

Thanks for your feedback. It's great to hear your positivity shine through! Sage's roots are firmly in the North-East of England as that's where we were founded over 30 years ago. The North Park campus is fantastic and has a fab vibe, and the people are great. As one profound philosopher once said "the only constant is change" - being the biggest Tech company in the FTSE100 we have to be smart and lead the change and leapfrog the competition. This is clearly something you enjoy - which is great and you'll thrive at Sage. Thanks for your feedback and keep loving #LifeatSage!
