Company in Trouble - Pay attention to dates of Glassdoor reviews
Pros
As other reviews have mentioned - you get unlimited PTO (if your manager does not guilt trip you every time you take a day), some catered lunches, snack wall, yoga once a week, barista every day, etc. Not sure if all perks will stay in place. The company desperately needs to save and bring in revenue. Cool office (although practically empty at this point) Young team
Cons
HR dept. writes positive reviews after negative ones are posted, then asks everyone to mark as "helpful" to keep the review at the top when Glassdoor automatically sorts reviews in Popular order. - 2 massive layoffs within 6 months time tells you the company is in bad shape - one of the big issues brought up in employee NPS surveys of Sovrn in 2017 was the uncertainty of the company's future. The CEO basically addressed this in saying every company that is comparable to Sovrn is suffering too. - The small companies in the industry simply cannot survive with issues like ad blocking, net neutrality, and giants like Google & Amazon running the show - Not the time to get into this industry - Communication between departments is horrible and has been a concern for years, but has not been appropriately addressed - CEO looks down upon salespeople. Just laid off the entire sales team to focus on marketing, but the brand identity of Sovrn is suffering and causing them to lose publishers (clients) so this may not be a good move. - You cannot find a positive review of Sovrn (from the client perspective) written in the last year - It seems they care more about spending their money on the perks offered rather than keeping their revenue-driving employees. I would be nervous with all the restructuring after the most recent layoff in 2018 - No room for career growth here. They simply don't have positions to move up into, only lateral moves - Base salaries are low and the commission opportunity discussed in interviews isn't accurate or comparable to similar positions in the area
