      Pros

      Use to be a good company to work for, but situation in US is significantly worse in the last 2 years.

      Cons

      Sage does not care about employees at all. 3 days working from office is strictly enforced, with sick colleagues working at office all the time. Feels like they want to force you to quite working there. Almost all US colleagues I talked to were very frustrated with the company. Recently Sage also uses PIP as a weapon to terminate long term employees and avoid paying any severance package. I saw a 20+ years colleague being terminated without any severance package.

      Thank you for sharing your experience, particularly given your long tenure with Sage. We’re sorry to hear how negatively your time ended and understand how frustrating and disappointing this experience clearly felt. Our hybrid working approach is designed to support a high‑performance, people‑centred culture, creating opportunities for colleagues to come together to collaborate, innovate, and deliver shared goals. By encouraging purposeful connection and flexibility, we aim to foster a sense of community while supporting the way we work best at Sage. That said, we do make adjustments where individual circumstances require additional flexibility. Colleagues who are unwell would be encouraged to speak with their manager and, where appropriate, make use of working from home to support their recovery. Anyone experiencing challenges or concerns in this area is encouraged to raise them through our Always Listening internal feedback channels or to seek confidential support from our Colleague Relations team. We also take your feedback about people and performance processes very seriously. While individual circumstances can vary and aren’t something we can comment on in a public forum, we’re committed to treating colleagues with respect and care and to continually reviewing how policies are applied in practice. We appreciate you taking the time to leave this review and wish you well in the future.

      Pros

      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.

      Cons

      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.

      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
