I’m sorry to hear you didn’t feel your experience with us was a positive one. While the “Pros” you listed are all great- free parking and beverages/snacks, I consider those to be pretty basic and it saddens me those were the only things you felt positive about while working with us. As leaders, we try our best to make Sovos a great place where people actually want to work. We offer flexible paid time off so employees don’t feel overworked and they can take the time off when it’s needed. We offer opportunities to grow within the organization and career development programs to help employees gain the skills needed to advance in different areas. We love to give recognition to dedicated employees through our high-five program and Work Tango (formally known as Kazoo). We also regularly benchmark our compensation packages to make sure we do stay competitive in the market. It sounds like Sovos wasn’t the right fit for you but I really hope that you have since found what you were looking for.

Thank you so much for your feedback. I agree with you about having great coworkers -- the people at Sovos are the best part of this company for me too! I appreciate and can relate to the feedback on keeping track of what is new. Over the last several years, our journey to Solve Tax for Good has accelerated -- which has been exciting, challenging and rewarding all at the same time. We work hard to communicate changes through various all company forums & functional/team updates, and will continue to explore new ways to connect and communicate. If you have any additional feedback or want anything clarified, I would be happy to set aside time to chat with you. My (virtual) door is always open. Thanks again for the feedback, and the time that you have spent with us. Laura Handler Chief of Staff

Pros

We have great customers. It makes you feel happy to help them.

Confusing architecture. Poor engineering leadership. Slow innovation. Red flag when they fired people that spoke up for necessary technical improvements.

Thank you for your feedback, and thank you for your comment regarding our customers. We are privileged to help businesses all over the world thrive through safe, frictionless compliance in a high-risk environment. Ensuring our products offer the reliability and scalability that our customers depend on is a continuous and incremental process, and I wonder if this is why it feels somewhat slow for you. This process depends on both our leadership and on the ability and insight of our talented and trusted team, and I assure you that we do not let people go for voicing concern – that would go against everything we believe in as a company. At Sovos, new ideas are welcomed. I’m really sorry to hear that your experience has been so different to the one we strive to create for our valued employees. I would appreciate the opportunity to discuss your experience further, so please do reach out to me directly, or to your HR representative if you would feel more comfortable. Thank you again for your feedback. - Eric Lefebvre, CTO
