Sovos reviews

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.

Thank you for taking the time to write this feedback. We appreciate and are happy to hear that you feel like this is a good time to be at the company. We’re in a market that’s in the midst of disruption so our opportunity is incredible. And, we have a talented team of people capable of going to get it. With with fast growth comes new products, new colleagues, and new offices. That certainly doesn’t make any of the existing businesses or teams less important, and we’ll take your feedback to heart as we continue to work on reinforcing that message. As with any growing organization, communication is hard, and we’ll be the first to admit, we haven’t mastered it. However, it’s one of our key strategic initiatives right now. We recently held focus groups across our largest sites to obtain direct feedback on what employees value, what they’d like to hear more about and what types of communication they value most. Now, we’re turning that into a action, and we hope you’ll notice the difference! We also invite you to provide your feedback directly through your manager or to anyone on the HR team. Thank you again for your review and please reach out to your manager or local HR should you have any ideas of your own on what we can do to further close the communication gap.
