Pros

Amazing colleagues who care about one another

Cons

Unfortunately Sage has completely U-turned, on what was an outstanding culture, over the past 2-3 years. It's become progressively worse to the point of job security and satisfaction is zero. Colleague satisfaction does not matter. The focus is profit and profit alone. Constant cycles of redundancies and restructures result in there never being stability to attain their much coveted 'high performing culture'. Too many outstanding colleagues have been cut from the business whilst senior leaders are continually allowed to display behaviours which are toxic, bullying, and at the very least plain rude. The latest handling of the return to the office policy is completely symptomatic of the 'new' Sage. Lies, spin, and the dictatorial mandate - you are lucky to be here attitude - is the pinnacle thus far. The offices are NOT able to cater for this approach in any way but Leadership are petulantly choosing not to listen to colleagues' genuine concerns. It is not the RTO but the way it is being handled and failure to be managed in any appropriate or reasonable way. It's all a really sad state of affairs now with morale rock bottom and a huge disconnect between leadership and colleagues
