Pros

Fun, challenging, exciting culture filled with people who raise the level of play in taking on this new market. Employees are passionate about the product and the impact it has on users' lives. Work with single users to Enterprises - everyone is a potential customer. Leadership is approachable and shares strategy and direction - also very open to ideas and improvements. Employees genuinely enjoy hanging out together - in and out of the office. Market leader. People truly love our product - have people share their "DocuStories" all the time when you share where you work and what you do. Lots of opportunity for career progression and career growth.

Cons

Fast growing doesn't mean there aren't any speedbumps - but for the most part, I've found it to be a rather smooth ride considering how much we've grown (have been with company as it grew from ~400 to over 2,000.) The challenge of the speedbumps can be part of the fun. As for sales - we're often dealing with status quo - can be a little harder to sell into, but that changes monthly as we only continue to grow and get recognition.

Pros

I've worked for a lot of companies, but DocuSign is the first place that I've felt like they actually WANT people to stay here for a long time. They aren't trying to burn you out and then toss you aside like many tech startups. There is a proven track-record of promoting from within, investing in employees (For example - just started a masters level leadership program through the University of Washington as a free benefit to leaders within the company). Leadership is thoughtful, caring, and respectful of their employees and truly committed to seeing them succeed, and not only succeed, but be happy and fulfilled. The pay is fair and they do what they can to add perks throughout the quarter, but they're not throwing money into stupid things like bean bags and razor scooters just to make it seem like this is a cool place to work. It's just a good place to work and people want to come and give their best. Plus, it's a pre-IPO company that is poised to have a great public launch.

Cons

There is getting to be a bit more corporate feel (more levels of approval to get a deal done). Comes with the territory as a company gets bigger and more successful, but it does slow things down a bit.
