You too can be a Director @ DocuSign!

Pros

Decent product, and likely a bright future for the Saas company, given the share of the eSignature market it currently owns.

Cons

DocuSign has more people with "Director" titles that don't actually direct anyone (as in, zero direct reports) or anything than any place I've ever seen. This place is truly cronyism at its finest. For everyone else, it's long hours and low pay. Unless you worked at Lexis Nexis in a former life (and therefore automatically qualify for a big title and $$$ at DocuSign) don't waste your time...work somewhere else where your level of experience and contribution actually correlate to your title and comp. Terrible benefits, no 401k match.

Since you wrote this review, I think you'd find that we built out a great experienced team and improved our benefits. We are growing so fast sometimes we need to hire senior management in advance and then they build the team they need to scale. Looking in retrospect, that plan has played out well. True we don't match a 401K yet but that is pretty typical for our stage of company. we hope that if you are still at DocuSign that you are happier and if not, hopefully you have found a better fit.

Big time fail.

Pros

Some of the most talented salespeople in the industry. Great technology. Team oriented culture.

Cons

This is not a work-life balance company. Different teams within the same role have very different experiences. Micromanagement at it's worst, mandatory 50 hrs a week in the office and call stats reported daily. It's a boiler room mentality. Quotas are unachievable and keep going up. This is a whale hunting role not a transactional sales environment which takes at least a year to ramp up your pipeline. You need the big deals to hit your quota, but large opportunities get poached by Enterprise reps. Certain AE teams receive consistent leads, others fend for themselves and cold call to survive. Terrible morale and low compensation.

I can't speak to the specifics of your comments as almost three years has passed since you wrote them. However, I think you would find that our sales and account management approach has been retooled since you were here as we have brought on seasoned sales management.

Pros

Product, its absolutely top of the line. Never having to defend the solution you sell means the world. Company atmosphere is also top of the class. Great people, great attitude, very exciting environment and great growth year over year.

Cons

Rapidly changing environment can be hard to keep up with.
