Vantaggi

- Healthcare benefits fully paid - 401k matching - Employee stock plan - Recognizable name on resume - Easy to get hired as an SDR, even if you don't have prior sales experience

Svantaggi

- It's extremely hard to move up outside of the sales org, despite them making it seem easy to make lateral moves during interviews; feels like a bait-and-switch - Unlivable base pay in pre-sales and closing roles, especially to be based in cities like Seattle, San Francisco, Chicago, and Toronto - Unattainable quotas that management refuses to reevaluate, even though they are clearly based on inflated COVID numbers - Management is not realistic about quota, they tell you to keep dialing but fail to understand that we will never hit peak COVID numbers again - DocuSign claims to put "employee's first," but refuses to listen to employees when we voice valid concerns about not being able to hit inflated quotas - Performative activism throughout the entire organization - carefully crafted email messages that go out detailing the amounts of money invested in organizations, yet DocuSign refuses to actually take a stance against injustice. Sometimes it's more harmful to try and stay "neutral." - Check their demographics online - the lack of black and brown representation throughout the company and in leadership is laughable - Majority of recent diversity and inclusion initiatives are led by white managers, mainly men - that should be enough said as to how problematic this is - Hires unethical people - when I say unethical I mean they hire people comfortable enough to rant about how BLM is a political issue in all company Slack channels, - You will be surrounded by frat bros - enough said as to why this will be a detriment to your mental wellbeing - They are currently offering $4k a referral, which just feeds into the lasting issue of nepotism and invasion of the frat boys - having most of the people on the sales floor being siblings, in-laws, and frat/sorority connected should not be the norm in a major city. There will be no diversity if you only ever hire people who all pledged the same PWI organizations - Your success is based on your team, so good luck. Your manager may or may not be willing to advocate for you it is solely the luck of the draw - Management can be problematic at times, and by problematic I mean classist, prejudice, and won't bat an eyelash at blatant favoritism - There are a lot of AE's here that are truly unprofessional; they no-show calls, don't communicate with SDR's, try and be shady (which is a problem because that is how we get paid), and some even have the nerve to be rude

Vantaggi

Mostly nice people, dedicated to their specific roles.

Svantaggi

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.
