Makes me wonder what's up with the process at these firms - wish we knew enough to say whether they're the exception or the rule.
Except that you create a toxic environment inside your accounts team, who have to constantly deal with incoming calls demanding money.
And if you're the kind of organization that makes a process out of paying each vendor as late as possible (I mean beyond the agreed terms) - which some do - then you'e likely a shitty org in many other ways too.
