Pros

Good payment platform for mid-market companies

Cons

If you’re an experienced sales rep, avoid this company. They’ve gone through multiple structural changes over the last year, and another one appears to be coming soon. The PE firm already cleaned house across leadership and brought in a brand new executive team with little to no experience selling accounting software. The organization feels extremely disorganized. Expect heavy micromanagement through tools like Gong and Force Management training. AEs are treated more like glorified BDRs, while SEs control most of the sales cycle. Even getting deals approved internally is painful, with layers of unnecessary approvals slowing everything down. Hardly anyone on the net new logo team made quota last year, and this year appears to be trending the same way. Territories are divided using poor Salesforce data. Out of roughly 250 assigned accounts, maybe 30 actually fit the ICP. Training is practically nonexistent after they let go of most of the training staff, and marketing is ineffective. The one positive I’ll give Billtrust is that the product itself is solid. However, implementation costs can be absurd, sometimes costing more than the subscription fees themselves.

Pros

Started as a fantastic company with the best culture I have ever seen. Spent many happy years here. Leadership WAS fantastic, caring, and were always supportive and driving success

Cons

Fast forward to getting bought out by a private equity and the entire business is being destroyed. Long-term employees with massive amounts of knowledge are being let go. Leadership seems to change almost monthly and new leadership are blinded by AI and care nothing about what Billtrust is/was. It seems as though they are weeding out anyone that knew the old Billtrust so they can carry on with reckless ideas that benefit no one.
