      Strong Industry Expertise, Needs a Stronger Security Culture in Engineering

      Software architect
      Recommend
      CEO approval
      Business Outlook

      Pros

      Vertex is well-regarded as a leader in tax technology and compliance automation, with a long track record supporting multinational enterprises. The company has steadily invested in cloud-based offerings and integrations with ERP systems (SAP, Oracle, Microsoft), which positions it well in the SaaS era.

      Cons

      While governance and compliance are strong, the security culture within engineering has historically lagged. Security is often treated more as an external client driven requirement than as a core part of the development lifecycle.

      Stable Company

      Partner manager
      Recommend
      CEO approval
      Business Outlook

      Pros

      In a time where tech companies are laying off employees, even though they are profitable and successful, Vertex has avoided this.

      Cons

      As a 40+ year old company, change comes slowly. Very slowly.

      Mislead on culture

      Corporate account executive
      Recommend
      CEO approval
      Business Outlook

      Pros

      Good compensation if you can actually hit the ridiculous targets they pull out of a hat.

      Cons

      Sales LEADERSHIP -When I was hired in here I was preached to about how excellent the culture was and how unbeatable it was. I was told it would take “18 months to ramp up and really know what I was doing”. My hiring manager got promoted 5 months into the role for me and they brought in some hot shot cut throat who put everyone on PIPS regardless of tenure. I was 3 months live in territory and put on a PIP even though I built a monster pipe and had many deals ready to close for Q2. Bottom line they brought in new leadership who was awful and treated people awful and started firing people on the team. Horrible management. Offers no feedback during 1-1s or help with anything at all. Don’t work for their “lower corp” space. You’ll be shown the door before one year is up if you’re not hitting numbers. Although “it takes 18 months to ramp up and know what you’re doing”.
