Pros

You will gain knowledge in your specialty and learn how to work in a toxic environment

Cons

Management generally knowledgeable in their area but incompetent at managing and motivating teams. No one out to help you-- more like throw you under the bus mentality. Little groups keep to themselves. Mean spirited people. Do not sell yourself short working here. Not a positive team building environment. Everyone's out for themselves. Managers just don't care-- only interested in bottom line. Do not sell yourself short or if you do prepare to leave soon after you arrive. Phony people; horrible environment. Definition of cliquee. Absolutely no encouragement. Company selects a few star employees every month which only serves to polarize groups and create a phony environment. Did I mention managers (90%) are incompetent? They will not serve you well but rather bring you down-- that goes for Directors too. Stay away!!!

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
