Thank you for taking the time to provide such great feedback! We hire smart, hard-working and career-minded individuals, so providing those opportunities you mentioned is fairly simple when you’ve got the right people. Because of those great people, we enjoy providing flexible time-off because life happens, and we want to make sure people are taking the needed time off whenever that may be. That includes our Volunteer Time Off (VTO). Our employees have consistently shown that they value giving back to our communities and we love to be able to support that! We also appreciate you mentioning compensation. We will continue to evaluate this as we recognize salary is extremely important component when selecting place of employment. Thanks again for your feedback and we’ll continue to provide new and creative ways to show our recognition for employees every day. If you have any specific ideas, reach out to your local HR, we love employee feedback!

Pros

Good company if you like free hand outs and brown nosing. As long as you play the part and "drink the koolaid" you'll fit it. If you know somebody in the company you're in good hands. They talk about new business and "greenfield" but all this company lives off of is upselling or as they call it "white space". But they praise "white space" like it's new business.

Cons

Upper management gets promotions after half the sales team turns over. They talk about "core value" and there none.

Dead End Job.

Pros

+ Coworkers are hands down the best part. Everyone is friendly, willing to answer questions, and always down for a game of ping pong. + Snacks, drinks, and the occasional beer or margarita cart. + While they're not a 'work from home' company, managers and supervisors are flexible when it comes from the occasional remote work day.

Cons

- Culture has dwindled drastically since I began. - Several executives and senior leadership have left since we became Sovos, which doesn't seem like a great sign of how things are going. - The CLOUD rotation program that they push is a great way for them to take advantage of an employee that is eager to learn a new aspect of the business by allowing them to take on the extra work of the department rather than hiring someone on full time, and ends with little retribution for the employee that completes the CLOUD rotation. - The SovosYOU "benefits" they preach are pretty unattainable. - Praise is highly placed on the sales teams, almost never on operations teams which generate a large percentage of recurring sales. - Hire inexperienced supervisors which in turn causes their direct reports to suffer. - Little to no upward movement for those on the operations side of the business. - The Minnetonka office space itself is in poor condition.
