Do not let the recognizable name fool you
Pros
Unfortunately there are far more cons than pros but if I were to have to think of some positives during my time at DocuSign i'd say the 401k match, stock plan, and overall benefits package were the best part. Otherwise, I wish I had never taken this job.
Cons
If you want to be a BDR/MDR/SDR go literally anywhere else. Their new business teams are struggling immensely meaning everyone on those teams are making a fraction of their OTE, there were some months where I wouldn't even have a commission check. Also in order to be promoted you have to meet a certain criteria and attainment so unless you're on a well performing team, there is nowhere for you to go. I watched people who started after me get promoted only because they were on a good team so it's strictly about numbers and luck. Also I would hardly consider the job inside sales.... sending mass email blasts and cold calling bad data teaches you nothing about actual sales and could probably be an automated job. In addition, they hire absolutely abysmal managers. I went through 3 managers during my time at DocuSign and only one of them was competent. The other two had no idea what they were doing or how to manage a team - I had never experienced such bad micromanaging. You hear from upper management maybe once a quarter and at the end of the day they will attempt to make your frustration feel heard but they could truly care less. Also they seem to be desperate for talent because a lot of the new hires seem to lack ambition and just accepted the job to have a job and not to learn and grow. But the interview process is the easiest interview process i've ever been through so I guess it makes sense how they're bringing in bad talent. Maybe other roles/departments at DocuSign are better, but the MDR role and overall sales org in general is a trap and I would highly encourage anyone in sales to look elsewhere.
