Advice to Management
As a previous GM - from a property that was sold and no longer managed by Sage, I can't speak highly enough of my experience with the organization. The day after my hotel transferred ownership, the CEO of Sage, Walter Isenberg, left me a voice mail thanking me for my leadership during the sale - and I am sure he did the same for all 14 GM's who's properties transferred that day. From a man with so much on his plate, to take a moment to call a GM from Cleveland, Ohio, was priceless. FYI...I will be saving that message for a long time!

Doesn't RecommendNeutral OutlookNo opinion of CEOI worked at Sage Hospitality part-time (More than a year)
Pros
When we had a Front Desk team work flowed nicely.
Cons
High Turnover, Management “worked from home”
Advice to Management
Corporate would come constantly to implement and fix issues but nothing ever was resolved. High management turnover as well.

Pros
Career opportnities - I was promoted to a new position and hotel in 2 years
Networking - monthly meetings with people in similar position at other hotels, quaterly Team Denver meetings with education and networking
Development - Annual development plans created in order to get you to your next stepCons
While there are a ton of career opportunities, it did not feel as though being an internal candidate gave me an advantage for some positions. It did take 9 months to find my next step.
Advice to Management
Make internal candidates your top priority.
But otherwise, keep up the good work! Sage is truly the best hospitality company in Denver!Sage Hospitality 2018-08-16 08:19 PDT![Sage Hospitality Logo]()

No Sage properties in NYC, and I no longer work with Sage.
Advice to Management
I worked with Sage Hospitality from 2014 until my property transitioned in mid 2018. It was the best hospitality company I have had the pleasure of working for. It is hard to come by a group of people who genuinely care of their staff and the community and go out of their way to help. I have no advice for the company as they are obviously doing the right thing, Way to go Walter!

Thank you for your thoughtful review of Sage. Our Associates are the most important part of our business and I am always appreciative of the hard work that goes into making a hotel or restaurant run. When we have a transition it is so difficult for us as a company to have to say goodbye to associates from that property. I wanted to show my appreciation and give a personal thanks to those who made it all happen. I am thrilled to see that your time at Sage was such a positive experience and I wish you the best with your new management company.... MoreLess
