Pros

Work life balance is really great they are super flexible on time off and do not heavily micromanage

Cons

You better hope you end up on a good team with a good territory. The majority of reps don't hit quota, the technology is lacking in comparison to the market, probably 5 years behind the market and do not invest in R&D.

Thank you for taking the time to provide your feedback. I couldn’t agree with you more on our great work life balance. This is feedback we hear frequently from our employees as a positive to their experiences with us. However, I would have to disagree with you about lacking technology. Sovos has continued to be recognized as a market leader year-over-year and most recently was named a leader in the Corporate Tax Software category by G2.com. I am sorry to hear that you have not felt satisfied with your assigned sales territory. Our leaders are dedicated to analyzing and strategizing the best approaches to ensure we are setting our teams and Sovos up for growth and success. If you feel that you have not been positioned to be successful in your role I would encourage you talk to your direct manager, or myself directly to discuss further. Thank you again for your feedback.

Thanks for the note. I love your feedback about access to leaders. I think I speak for our entire leadership team when I say how much we value the relationships we have with team members across the business. Our doors are truly always open and we are happy to share our experiences, address concerns, listen to ideas or even just brainstorm. We are constantly evaluating how our organizational structure and we look at what makes sense for us right now. While our individual lines of business are stand alone, we are also highly matrixed. That means that we have to work really effectively cross-functionally in order to be successful. If you have questions about how the various teams work with our lines of business, or specific questions about our products I would encourage you to myself or the relevant leader to discuss further. As you very rightly noted – we’re always here to talk. Thanks again for the feedback and I am glad to have you as a part of our team.

Pros

Growing company staffed with passionate, intelligent people- unbeatable job security and promising long term products.

Cons

Terrible retention of employees, routine knowledge loss in departures which makes continued work a chore; lots of existing/legacy products neglected in the quest to get upcoming products ready.

Hey there, thanks for the feedback. We have said it time and again – the people are definitely the best part of Sovos. I continue to be so impressed by the passion and drive that our employees have. We are very lucky. Sovos is in a unique position right now. We are a fast-growing industry leader in a fast-growing, dynamic industry. Our global teams continue to add functionality to the Sovos products on which our customers rely, while simultaneously integrating acquired technology and building solutions that help our customers and future customers prepare for the continued challenges of the digitization of tax and economies. This is an audacious task, and also absolutely essential in order to achieve our mission to Solve Tax for Good. Rising to this challenge creates an incredible opportunity for our employees. I know you mentioned job security and exciting products in the pipeline. Our aspiration is for all of our people to be able to grow with Sovos, and in doing so improve their way of life. But we also value our employees’ well-being above all else. If you ever feel you need additional support, please reach out to your manager or to me directly. My door is always open.
