Pros

There are many good things about DocuSign like a full stocked kitchen, great parties for christmas etc.

Cons

Manager was very passive aggressive. They are a very top heavy company with too much management and people with poor social skills are put into management positions. They are growing so fast and not compensating at a rate that is accepted in Silicon Valley, so a lot of the talent that they are hiring isn't really qualified for the roles they are putting them into.

Pros

About half of the senior leadership team is good. The actual product and technical side of the house is amazing. Not afraid to spend money to achieve their goals.

Cons

I usually do not bother writing reviews, but after reading the two (fake?) reviews raving about the great opportunity in Enterprise Sales, I had to weigh in. Stay away! Incompetent management, cronyism and sub-par compensation. This team is struggling.

We hope you landed in a great place and wish you well. Sorry to hear your experience was sub-par. I have great faith in Dan Springer our new CEO and Scott Olrich our new CSO/CMO and Joan Burke our new Chief People Officer.. They have brought in a lot of fresh ideas and focus and transparency that has re-energized the team.

Pros

Very good work/life balance. Market leader. Financial outlook is good. If cons of the sort described below don't bother you, you can have a very successful, stable, stress-free 9-5 job.

Cons

Management (in San Francisco at least) has a systemic inability to recognize and correct bad decisions. It seems like they spend most of their time in meetings making excuses so they don't have to take a perceived political hit for making a bad choice, instead of owning it and doing something better. This influence from the top has made its way into individual hiring decisions, where hiring managers make excuses for candidates and look down on anyone who gives negative interview feedback. This has created an engineering culture where people either blindly do what they're told and code exactly to spec (even if it's the wrong thing for customers and the company), or get frozen out, badmouthed, and belittled for speaking their minds and raising valid concerns. Add to this a total lack of technical mentorship or career growth opportunities, and I guess what I'm saying is that it's definitely not an engineering-driven culture.
