Avalara used to be a great company with excellent culture and supportive people, but after the aquisition by Vista, management has become just puppet of Vista execs.
There has been reorg leaving a lof of people in turmoil and leaving a large portion of leadership till SVP powerless. CFO who has been there since a long term has left. Every manager is given a target to fire certain number of employees in specific period of time and a lot of people have become victims irrespective of performing really well and going above and beyond for the company. They are promoting and keeping people who have been blinding taking orders. Company's approach for forcefully fitting AI even where it does not make any sense has ruined the core product and every year they come up with a new priority while abandoning existing priorities. This approach won't take Avalara anywhere.
