Not a place to be if you want job security - Anonymous employee Sovos Employee Review

Thank you for taking the time to provide your feedback. We are sorry to hear that you had such a terrible experience. Our goal as an organization is to create a challenging and rewarding environment where all employees have the opportunity to contribute, develop, and grow. In our annual employee survey, employees told us that encouraging new ideas was a strength for Sovos. But, it sounds like you didn’t experience that in your role, and we don’t take that lightly. I’m particularly concerned about the perception that we make a practice of letting people go. While we’ve never done a mass layoff as you describe, there were structural changes required to integrate the businesses we brought together into one global team, and unfortunately those changes did come with some position eliminations over the past couple years. The truth is, we’ve actually grown significantly in that time, ballooning from less than 500 people to more than 1,000 worldwide. And, our business depends on our ability to find, retain and grow talented people in every department. We appreciate the acknowledgement of our great managers. We invest heavily in hiring talented managers and arming them with the training and tools they need to thrive. Last year, 80% of employees felt their manager made it easier to do their job well. But we strive to do even better. We have worked hard in implementing additional training resources to help our managers grow and improve the overall employee experience. We take every review seriously, and we will take all your feedback back to our leaders for discussion. We are working every day to be better than the next, and we appreciate your direct feedback. We wish you luck in your next opportunity.
