Pros

This company is a great place to work. While working here I feel a sense of accomplishment and I am always striving to improve. The work environment is relaxed and fun. We all have heavy work loads, but with the fun people, awesome management, and company gatherings, makes working here totally worth it. Management is always willing to listen, and they have your best interests in mind. Everyone who works here, works as a team and treats people equally.

Cons

Sometimes the work load is a tad overwhelming, and access to more work resources is hard to acquire.

Pros

Is Avalara a great place to work? It depends on the team you are on. Pros: - I love my team. I have great co-workers. I feel like leadership to the VP level understands the value we bring and advocates for our work throughout the company - I like being able to go into the office and see people and bounce ideas around - My manager is always pushing me to learn new things and get out of my comfort zone - We just got a new CEO and I am super excited about him and his vision. Everyone who has actually been in meetings with him is excited too.

Cons

It depends on the team you are on. Cons: - Some teams are not as curious/helpful as others. I often have to check and recheck the work they do, after I have chased them multiple times to even complete the work - The layoff fear is real, the idea that at any point your position could be eliminated because they want to keep that revenue per headcount KPI down is everywhere
