Thanks for your feedback. The people across sage are amazing, so it’s great to hear you experience this in Dublin as well. The Sage Foundation is a fantastic initiative – for our people and charities alike. The behaviours you refer to are not tolerated here at Sage. All colleagues are encouraged to report such behaviour as outlined in our Code of Conduct. Please call the free and confidential SafeCall number and this will be dealt with. You can also contact your manager and/or People Business Partner. Confidentiality is assured. Thanks again.

Thanks for your feedback. This is valuable for people outside the company but especially here, inside Sage. It would help Sage mature in its leadership and organizational mission if such feedback was shared with leaders prior to you leading (maybe you did already do this?) We would ask all colleagues (if they feel comfortable to do so) to talk with their manager and People business partner for help communicating ideas more broadly. Sage needs each and every one of its colleagues to be an agent of change. We recently circulated an colleague engagement survey to capture this kind of feedback for our leadership so hopefully you had a chance to also respond to that. We appreciate your insight and wish you well with your career, wherever that may be.

Pros

The company encourages employee to do charity work.

Cons

To choose between employees and cost, the company prefers cost cutting. They would rather hires new staff with liffle expereince instead of retaining expererienced employees just to save a few bucks. The customer focus is really a lie.

Thanks for reviewing Sage. The Sage Foundation is fantastic for colleagues and charitable organisations alike - our people help change the lives of 1000s of well-deserving people across the globe. By far our biggest channel for recruiting is our internal channel, right now 26% of our vacancies go to internal candidates and in some countries this is as high as 45% which demonstrates the value we place of developing colleagues at Sage. Our business builders are massively important to us, and as our CEO Stephen Kelly says 'they are our obsession' - great customers supported by a network of fantastic dedicated colleagues. Thanks again and I wish you all the success with your career.
