Not POC Friendly

Pros

Looks good on resume and that’s about it. Oh and the pay, great pay.

Cons

This company rarely hires POC. Look at the website there is little to no diversity. They claim to want to hire people who are capable of doing the work and yet they rarely ever give someone the chance. It’s disheartening to work a company like this.

Thank you for taking the time to leave your feedback, and I am sorry that this has been your experience here. Sovos is committed to fostering, cultivating and preserving a culture of diversity, equity and inclusion. Our journey started in earnest two years ago with the launch of an intensive DE&I audit, followed by creating my position on the Executive Leadership Team to develop DEI strategy and implement change. It’s important to realize DEI is a journey and it takes time to realize our goals. We’ve made a lot of progress in the last year – including hiring more new employees from underrepresented groups last fiscal year than in previous years. We are being intentional in implementing actions to exceed last year’s progress this fiscal year in both hiring and development. We have formed partnerships with several organizations to help us on these missions. I agree that our website needs updating, what we looked like two years ago is not what we look like today. And what we look like today is not what we are going to look like two years from now. I understand your desire to have faster progress and your passion is both obvious and appreciated. I would love to share more information with you about our DEI progress to date, our goals for the future, and discuss your feedback directly. Please reach out if you’d like to take me up on that offer. You area also welcomed to send suggestions to diversity_inclusion@sovos.com.

Thanks for your feedback. I know what you mean, my co-workers are my favorite part of Sovos too. Our organization is made up of so many talented and inspiring individuals who do incredible work. I always consider myself lucky to work alongside all of you. And I agree, there are areas where we can do better. Meetings are a good example, it’s an area where we know that we can improve. The pivot to having so many of our employees working remotely due to our new flexible guidelines has certainly impacted the number of meetings here. We have had our leadership development program and other focus groups tackle this problem in the past. If you have some ideas about how to ensure meetings are a good use of our time, I would love to hear them. And that holds true for everyone, we are always looking for feedback on ways that we can do better. My door, and the doors of all of Sovos’ leaders and HR members, are open if you or anyone wants to share feedback directly. Thanks, again, for sharing and we are glad you are here.

Pros

Solid pay, never bored, a ton of learning to do.

Cons

Nobody will teach if you don't ask. Need to be self sufficient and cannot be lazy.

I appreciate you taking the time to leave a review. I know that there is so much to learn and it’s constant! Hopefully you have found our bootcamps and career development programs to be helpful resources throughout your journey. To your comment about being self-sufficient- we do rely on everyone at Sovos to Be Proactive and Be Accountable about getting the information and help that you need. Resources are easily available and accessible, and I know our teams do a fantastic job of bringing each other’s knowledge up to speed. That said, you’re absolutely right – when you need assistance, it’s just a matter of speaking up to get the clarity you need. Our culture is supportive, and people are always willing to help when asked. Thank you for all you do, Ruth Fornell
