      Pros

      My current team is good

      Cons

      Upper management is totally disconnected from the real needs and challenges of the teams doing the core work. There is a strong push for high performance, but without the modern tools, empathy, or strategies that enable people to thrive. They not ever listen, adapt or evolve, but say this is at their core values. They should learn the basic: A sustainable performance comes from a well-supported, heard and valued employees.

      Pros

      -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

      Cons

      -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
