Thank you for taking the time to share your thoughts. I am really happy to see the positive aspects of your time here. We are proud of our global footprint, and am thrilled that it provided you with the opportunity to work on diverse, cross-border initiatives. Our commitment to fostering an environment of career development is a core part of our company culture, so I am happy to know that you benefited from the resources we offer. And maintaining a healthy work-life balance is something we believe is critical to our employees’ well-being, and we understand that a flexible work arrangement can foster that. I am glad that you experienced this balance during your time here. I hear you on the meetings! We understand that a balance is crucial, and we are always evaluating ways to find the right with meetings. One of the ways we have done this is to implement twice monthly no-meeting days internally, which was an idea conceptualized by one of our employee groups. It is something we continue to evaluate and are always open to suggestions on . Thank you for the time you spent with us, and we wish you the best in whatever your future holds. Eric Lefebvre Chief Technology Officer

Thank you for sharing this, and welcome to the team! It's wonderful to hear that your recruiting experience set such a positive tone from the start. Cassie is a great example of the kind of Sovosians we are proud to have representing our culture, and knowing she made you feel informed and at ease throughout the process genuinely matters to us. We also love hearing that your first day onboarding helped you connect with our values and get a feel for what we do. That experience is something we work hard to get right, and your feedback confirms it's landing the way we intend. We're glad you're here, and we look forward to growing together.

Pros

Being Remote and standard benefits

Cons

Sales leadership is horrendous. New people are brought in not trained, aggressive targets (that have never been hit) usually designed to be the escape goats to protect the old guard. Long tenured sales protects the existing power structures. When results slip, they blame newer reps. New hires don’t hit, quotas unrealistic, weak implementation. Nightmare of a company, the worst I have ever worked at.

Thank you for taking the time to share this. Feedback matters, even when we see things differently. Quota-setting and new hire ramp structures are areas we invest in seriously - they're because we want our sellers to win, not to set anyone up to fail. That's the culture we've built, and it's one I'm proud of. That said, I do hear that your experience hasn't matched that intent. If there are specific gaps in how you were onboarded or supported, I'd genuinely like to understand them so we can keep getting better. Please connect with HR or reach out to me directly. We're committed to building a team where every rep has a real shot at success! Alice Katwan, President of Revenue, Sovos
