Thank you for taking time to share your feedback. I am glad to hear you felt secure at Sovos during such an uncertain time for people across the globe. While I wasn’t here personally during your tenure, from what I understand, the company worked hard to navigate these challenging times together with employees. I agree with the importance of growth and being provided with a clear career path, and it’s something that I can say Sovos marketing the SDR teams will work on in the coming months. I’m a massive believer in the SDR function because I think it helps build critical sales and marketing skills, and those skills can serve as a foundation for other career paths. In addition to the annual performance reviews in place globally, I’m going to be partnering with sales leadership on creating a growth path for successful SDRs that want to be move into account executive roles in the future. Thank you for taking the time to share these thoughts; they are highly appreciated. We wish you the best of luck in your journey beyond Sovos. - Chris Lynch, Chief Marketing Officer

Thank you for sharing this, and welcome to the team! It's wonderful to hear that your recruiting experience set such a positive tone from the start. Cassie is a great example of the kind of Sovosians we are proud to have representing our culture, and knowing she made you feel informed and at ease throughout the process genuinely matters to us. We also love hearing that your first day onboarding helped you connect with our values and get a feel for what we do. That experience is something we work hard to get right, and your feedback confirms it's landing the way we intend. We're glad you're here, and we look forward to growing together.

Pros

Being Remote and standard benefits

Cons

Sales leadership is horrendous. New people are brought in not trained, aggressive targets (that have never been hit) usually designed to be the escape goats to protect the old guard. Long tenured sales protects the existing power structures. When results slip, they blame newer reps. New hires don’t hit, quotas unrealistic, weak implementation. Nightmare of a company, the worst I have ever worked at.

Thank you for taking the time to share this. Feedback matters, even when we see things differently. Quota-setting and new hire ramp structures are areas we invest in seriously - they're because we want our sellers to win, not to set anyone up to fail. That's the culture we've built, and it's one I'm proud of. That said, I do hear that your experience hasn't matched that intent. If there are specific gaps in how you were onboarded or supported, I'd genuinely like to understand them so we can keep getting better. Please connect with HR or reach out to me directly. We're committed to building a team where every rep has a real shot at success! Alice Katwan, President of Revenue, Sovos
