Sovos Response
3yThank you for taking the time to leave your feedback, and I am sorry that this has been your experience here. Sovos is committed to fostering, cultivating and preserving a culture of diversity, equity and inclusion. Our journey started in earnest two years ago with the launch of an intensive DE&I audit, followed by creating my position on the Executive Leadership Team to develop DEI strategy and implement change. It’s important to realize DEI is a journey and it takes time to realize our goals. We’ve made a lot of progress in the last year – including hiring more new employees from underrepresented groups last fiscal year than in previous years. We are being intentional in implementing actions to exceed last year’s progress this fiscal year in both hiring and development. We have formed partnerships with several organizations to help us on these missions. I agree that our website needs updating, what we looked like two years ago is not what we look like today. And what we look like today is not what we are going to look like two years from now. I understand your desire to have faster progress and your passion is both obvious and appreciated. I would love to share more information with you about our DEI progress to date, our goals for the future, and discuss your feedback directly. Please reach out if you’d like to take me up on that offer. You area also welcomed to send suggestions to diversity_inclusion@sovos.com.
