Pros

-The brand still carries weight in the market. -Salary and Benefits -Mid level TA leadership is generally competent. Which makes working at Docusign bearable for the most part. -Flexibility and remote work options (depending on team).

Cons

-TA leadership is highly political, focused on managing up to the C-suite rather than bringing real subject matter expertise or driving meaningful change. -Many of the strongest and most respected leaders have left; those who raised concerns were sidelined or pushed out. -Current leadership lacks depth in TA knowledge, creating a vacuum of trust, direction, and credibility across the function. -Culture has deteriorated significantly over the past number of years, low morale, little transparency and a constant sense of instability. -Feedback is ignored unless it aligns with leadership’s narrative.

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.
