Pros

The coworkers were always a pleasure to work with

Cons

We were told when they got bought out by EQT that there wouldn’t be structural changes in at least the first year. New CEO barely got his foot into the door and he already laid off 8% of the staff. Everything the old CEO stood for, he flushed down the drain. So much for a “family first”company.

Pros

Accepting of WFH since the pandemic started The Unlimited PTO isn't just a gimmick There is great collaboration across departments There is pretty good work life balance Billtrust is very accepting of diversity There is pretty reasonable career advancement

Cons

It all comes down to the CIO that has been micromanaging and quickly destroying the once great culture of Billtrust. As many would know, culture is derived from the top and it certainly shows. If you are interested in tech positions, be leery. Managers and engineers have been belittled and berated in large meetings multiple times. The CIO has replaced or added many positions with his own from the top to the bottom. Many great employees have either left the company or have become toxic in their positions. While there are still some pockets of great culture in the tech side, I believe that will only last for so long. I want to recommend Billtrust to you, but with the new CIO and the now degraded culture, I just cant...

A lesson in what not to do

Pros

Not all of the good employees/people are gone yet but they will be soon. Critical tribal knowledge is getting thinner and thinner. Only Pro I can think of.

Cons

CEO "seems" like a nice guy but can only serve as a leadership puppet to the PE firm. Senior people left are only there to serve their own interests, not the employees. Very, very few people have an equity stake when the PE firm sells Billtrust. That value decreases everyday as does anyone's security at Billtrust. As said by others, people being walked out about every day. Sales are extremely soft, Tech Debt multiplies, Product years behind, Professional Services fees too high to sell, Support internally and externally being off shored more and more. Raises, bonuses, and commissions continue to decrease. PE firm wants to sell a "profitable" company but apparently can only lay people off to attempt achieving that and decreasing the survivors pay while expecting more from them. Yes, we hear the agonizing coach speak in about every company update call. The CFO is trying hard to spin the bad news for employees by distracting the audience with Dad jokes. HR is a disaster and always has been. Never seen such uncaring and elusive "Human Resources". Problem lives at the top and flows down. Company values are lipstick on a pig. And Open PTO just means you never earn it so they do not have to pay it out when you quit or get fired. Most are afraid to take any in the current environment. CEO and PE seem to think they just need more salespeople when in fact the many good salespeople are starving through lack of leads and business development. The thinking seems quite elementary in those supposedly "driving" the company. Senior people are hired and fired at an alarming rate. Q4 is going to be brutal. Someone didn't do their homework.
