Pros

- Sovrn has a strong work/life balance, and somewhat competitive perks (unlimited PTO). - The people are great and the atmosphere is relaxed. - The work is challenging. - A good place to get your career started in tech.

Cons

- In an increasingly commodified + competitive market, with pressure coming in on all sides, Sovrn has struggled to bring a substantial differentiator to market. The work that is being championed is bringing it up to mid 2010's level technology. - Sovrn has continually decided to invest in cost-savings + infrastructure overhauls, which are needed, but this ultimately prohibits new products, forward-thinking and a growth-first mindset. - Decision makers are siloed and have narrow POVs. - Executive level is an insiders club and rarely held accountable. - Individual Contributors are consistently asked to go above and beyond without clear understanding of what it will do for them + the company. - Every product competes with each other, rather than contributing to each other. Resourcing is usually too lean (before large layoffs). - Less that competitive pay for the industry.
