Pros

Growing company, new and exciting technology. Many groups have great managers that really work with you to help further your career. If you get into the right group you have lots of flexibility and support. Good benefits.

Cons

Work life balance and diversity issues. Still very male dominated culture. Struggle to get fair compensation Need a more family friendly environment throughout the company and not department specific

Thank you for your review. Your comments re family-friendly are interesting. We'd like to learn more. Have you thought of starting an Employee Resource Group for Working Parents@DocuSign similar to the ERGs like Women@DocuSign, and DocuPride etc. Michelle Roberts - our Diversity Program Manager - would be the person to speak to. When a small group of people with a common interest get together and develop a plan and propose suggestions, they can move mountains. It seems like a very worthy mission and something we as a company should consider even more thoughtfully.

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.
