Pros

There are no pros about Tipalti. They are truly very toxic, and the recruiter's attitude was awful.

Cons

I applied for a content marketing specialist position and was genuinely excited about the opportunity to work with a company like Tipalti. However, the interview process left a lot to be desired. I arrived at the scheduled Zoom interview on time and waited in the meeting room for 15 minutes using the exact link provided to me by the recruiter. I even followed up via email during the wait, only to later receive a vague message suggesting that I hadn’t shown up — without any acknowledgment of the email I sent or the possibility of a technical issue on their end. At no point was there a clear attempt to take ownership, reschedule thoughtfully, or simply acknowledge the inconvenience. It felt like my time wasn’t respected, and there was no accountability from the recruiter, despite the fact that I did everything correctly. This experience reflects poorly on the company’s candidate experience and raises concerns about the internal culture. I ultimately chose to withdraw from the process. A company that operates with this level of communication and energy during the interview stage is not one I feel aligned with — and I trust my instincts.

Pros

Good people. My direct manager was excellent and very supportive. Free lunch when in office. Health benefits are okay.

Cons

There have been numerous layoffs, and overall it feels incredibly unstable. The product has a lot of issues, which makes the onboarding role much harder than it needs to be. When deadlines are missed, leadership tends to blame the onboarding team, even when you’re doing everything you’re supposed to and the challenges are outside your control. It doesn't help that the Product has a lot of issues, and leadership will push on us to sell on more product features, that will make implementation even longer and the features are not ready to be used by customers. Sales regularly overpromises to customers, then avoids accountability when those expectations can’t realistically be met. Most process changes seem to benefit Sales while making onboarding even more difficult. Pay is below industry standard, and as a result, many of the strong employees don’t stick around for long. While my coworkers are great, it seemed like everyone was miserable. Always complaining about customers, leadership, turnover, layoffs, low pay, and questionable policies. It's not a healthy work environment, and leadership needs to introduce changes immediately if they want to attract and retain talent. Performance is heavily data-driven, which isn’t inherently a bad thing. However, evaluations tend to focus too narrowly on metrics like average implementation time, without fully considering the many factors outside an employee’s control that impact results. As a result, overall performance and contributions don’t always feel fairly assessed.
