Avalara Claimed Company
At Avalara, we're different by design. We help businesses get tax compliance right in a world where rules are complex, change is constant, and the stakes are high. As companies grow across products, channels, systems, and geographies, compliance becomes more difficult and AI is changing the landscape. Avalara is solving that challenge with agentic AI and by embedding compliance into the systems where business already happens, including ERP, ecommerce, billing, marketplaces, and point of sale. We're proud to be orange. But the goal was never simply to stand out. It was to build a better way forward. Avalarians simplify complexity. We are intelligently automating tax and compliance workflows and are evolving how humans work with AI, leveraging the best of both. We combine deep compliance expertise with modern technology and AI to solve problems that matter for businesses around the world. That mindset shapes our products, our culture, and the opportunities for every Avalarian. read more

I have a love hate relationship with the company. Love what we are trying to do, but solos are extreme and Sr leaders are focused on their own goals and not greater good of the company.

Why do you feel undervalued and what would make you feel better about your compensation?

SVPs & VPs micromanages and do not allow leaders to freely make decisions.

What needs to change to make the company culture better?

Drop the SVP of Sales and the group of "yes men" (and women) surrounding.

What are some of the best things about your team?

My team is a tight knit unit. We understand each others strengths and roles and can work together seemlessly.

What would you improve about your company's interview process?

Train managers on how to conduct a proper interview before they get us sued for asking inappropriate or biased questions.

What's going wrong and how can it be improved?

Sr leaders don't actually listen. They will ask for opinions and then blatantly ignore suggestions from those who are in the know on those topics.
