      Can't decide which way to go - Senior Software Developer Avalara Employee Review

      Pros

      There is a very good group vibe. You can make Avalara a very large part of you social life - in a good way - IF you live on the island.

      Cons

      It a very face to face culture. It's very hard to get decisions out of people without a face to face meeting, which means that people spend a lot of time in meetings. And that telecommuting is not as effective as it needs to be. Things tend to get done because someone has the authority to demand it - not because it's the best thing for the company as a whole. This means priorities change quickly and a lot.

      Pros

      Avalara truly has great people working for the company. The culture is strong, we wear orange and are out in the market having fun which is appreciated internally but also by our prospects, customers and partners. There is potential to make very good money along with enjoying many other great benefits that other companies i have worked for have not offered. Avalara does not hesitate to invest in software and other tools that help their employees do their jobs more efficiently and effectively.

      Cons

      There has been a lot of turnover at all levels which is not a bad thing because it brings new ideas and perspective to the company. With these new ideas and frameworks there has been a lot of change and shifting goals so you need to be adaptable to keep up. The loss of longtime employees also leaves a gap of institutional knowledge which can make finding answers to questions challenging.
