Pros

Collaborative work culture, good work/life balance

Cons

Executives are bean-counters. We've been through periodic rounds of layoffs that are for no other reason than to fine-tune the company's profit profile. They drop people with no warning (we had just been told in the last company meeting there wouldn't be any more rounds of layoffs) I was just the victim of the most recent one. Apparently, although my entire team and everyone I worked with valued my contributions highly, three levels up the food chain, they didn't care; they didn't even do my manager the courtesy of telling him they were letting me go beforehand. He found out when I told him.

Pros

Mostly nice people, dedicated to their specific roles.

Cons

Lack of team cohesion among departments. Lots of communication and accountability breakdowns, siloed efforts. Immature processes and undeveloped operations. Unqualified and ineffective leadership: I was to be the Business Process Lead but mid-interview, the hiring manager told me they would instead place me in a very small sub-department reporting into Finance Business Transformation. It was never clear if this was meant to be temporary or permanent... I was successful in facilitating and contributing to a project that was 10+ years overdue at Docusign. The managing director I reported to was laid off so a more tenured employee took over as "manager" who had never been in charge of people and it showed. Despite my contributions, I was told how little they valued my work and efforts on a successful project. Definitely a level disparity as I have been Sr. Finance Manager twice and head of a global department reporting into VP level and up. It appeared that all this new "manager" wanted was a subservient cog to condescend, demotivate, and talk down to. Beyond ridiculous to squander my 15 years of corporate experience.
