Pros

- Hungry and talented employees - Good people, for the most part - Promotion opportunities (when actually given to people who earned it)

Cons

- Leadership is out for themselves and their priorities, upper leadership brought in pre ipo (for their own agendas/or friends agendas) - Many leaders do not advocate for their teams - Lack of transparency - Internal surveys that "encourage" transparency, which is then held against departments with low scores/bad feedback - Fear tactics encourage employees not to speak up - Compensation is low across most functions

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.
