Pros

Good culture in general for entry and mid level positions. I went there in a career change and got lots of good experience.

Cons

They will lay off critical leadership and will seemingly critical products without much warning. Will not pay a lot and some area leadership have biased to homogeneous culture for promoting, so pay attention.

Thanks for your feedback. I agree Sovos is a great place for those who are interested in gaining experience and growing their careers. I was surprised by your comments about our leadership, however. We value our leaders, as we do all of our employees. As you probably know, Sovos has a big, audacious goal to Solve Tax for Good – and to do that we need to have the right people, in the right places at the right times. As such, titles, teams and managers sometimes shift to make sure we continue advancing toward this goal. At multiple levels of the company, those shifts create opportunity for employees. About one-third of our team experienced a job change or promotion last year, based on a rigorous, merit-based process designed to eliminate favoritism. I’d be happy to talk more about this if you’d like. Again, thank you for your comments, and we’re happy to hear you’ve found Sovos valuable to your career growth.

Your feedback is rather short and brings up management systems and planning into question. I’d like the opportunity to address. Sovos operates on a collection of best practices that have been integrated from various parts of the world, and we work to continuously improve. If you have any doubts, I’d encourage you to come discuss with me or our new Director of Managed Services to provide a Company overview on our results. One of those being the recognition given from IDC Marketscape on being a Leader in “Worldwide SaaS and Cloud-Enabled Sales Tax and VAT Automation Applications.” We’re solving tax for good, which is not an easy feat. I couldn’t agree more with you that we have great people that work here. Which is why our employees coupled with proven strategies, our products and our best in class compliance services we are leading the market. Thank you for taking the time to provide your input and I am happy to discuss any time.
