Pros

- amazing culture based on build trust so anyone can thrive - amazing colleagues ready to help - super cool internal social networks - it is a huge company with almost 15.000 employees worldwide - it is the market leading company in its field - best wages for entry level devs with a ok bonus - loads of trainings, workshops, learning platforms, tools and courses - opportunity to grow - opportunity experiment and change roles even changing to a complete new function

Cons

- productivity might be too demanding if you want to enjoy just a bit of the development opportunities (trainings, workshops, courses, etc) the company has to offer, including engaging in the internal social networks as one might see this as not important the same time the company motivates its use.

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
