There is a collective motivation felt throughout all the work here. As we move from a start up to a strong and substantial company, the employees have the same hunger and excitement as day 1. Leadership has a close ear to the ground in hopes to making sure their employees are happy and have the tools needed. The culture is great. Much like your typical "tech environment" with a creative work spaces, stocked kitchens and beers when needed, DocuSign has a refreshing mature feel to it unlike past tech companies i have worked for. While the demographic is relatively young, for the large majority of employees have worked in tech for many years which leads to a stable and professional work environment.
Cons
The only con revolves around your typical growing pains. Setting up of new processes (software, requests, etc.) and getting used to them.

Thank you for taking the time to share your positive experience with us. We are thankful for your insights and are happy to read your positive feedback.
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.
