Pros

The compensation is good. Most of the people I worked with are great. The office has a good environment, provides plenty of snacks and drinks with a nice view of the bay bridge.

Cons

There was no work/life balance for me personally. It's what you can expect from a startup. I usually work till 11pm before I had to leave to catch my ride home. The company had suck the life out of me.

Thanks for writing this review. We have worked on the work/life balance and think you'd find it a different place today from when you wrote this review 2 years ago. Best of luck to you.

CEO is a greedy jerk! DocuSign has More VPs than a Banana Republic

Pros

Great coworkers and technology in a fun space.

Cons

Glassdoor has jumped the skark, naming this a best company to work. CEO is killing company with his hubris. He keeps hiring VPs, count is over 60. For a company this size? Nobody knows what the VPs do, everyone thinks its a big, sad joke. All VP hires are men, by the way. Dude does not have a clue, think he's the Master of the Universe. His VPs keep him from reality, not one has any balls. Employees are underpaid and overworked. Entire dept quit together last month. Never seen that before. And so have many long time employees and top sales performers. Never worked at a place where everyone is so miserable, waiting for their exit. This is not how the company was a few years ago. CEO is trying to blend old school management at say GE, IBM, with Valley culture, and copying only the worst aspects of each one. He expects employees to work around the clock like other startups. But without a stake in the company or the benefits and perks that are standard here in the Valley. Too stupid to realize that happy employees make great companies. Too much misery can take a company down, however great your technology.

Thanks for writing this review. I personally don't recognize the company you describe above or perhaps its because we now can see the fruits of the investments in seasoned executives and acquisitions that the company has made in the past two years. We set some pretty audacious goals a few years ago and what has been amazing is how we have achieved them. Keith gets very high ratings internally and senior management is very accessible and has nurtured a culture of transparency. We have a quarterly All Hands meeting and for the months that there is no All Hands, we have a Leadership meeting with Q&A for all directors worldwide. We have an open Forum on Chatter called "Need More Cowbell" where people post all sorts of questions -- even heated ones about everything from benefits to expenses to diversity. However, I respect your opinion and hope two things: that you have landed in a good spot and that you bought your DocuSign options. Best of luck to you!

Pros

Everyone really cares and is extremely talented and good at their jobs. People are recognized and appreciative for their contributions. Under-performers are not left to hang around and bring everybody down.

Cons

Things get really busy and sometimes unfocused, but everyone's heart seems in the right place.
