Docusign reviews

The management and processes at Docusign are behind the industry standard. The managers appear to make hiring decisions on a whim, technical interviews are haphazard, and the middle management spends most of their day on politics and don't even know how to code. Also, although most tech companies lack diversity, Docusign hasn't released numbers because they are probably much worse than most--I have yet to see a woman speak at an all hands, for example. At the holiday party this year, they chose to have dancers in see through lace lingerie and thongs--how is this supposed to help women feel more included as equals in tech roles at this company?

- From where I sit, it is a very top-heavy organization. There are executives who were added in the last 2-3 years whose actual roles and contributions I couldn't even hazard a guess at. Their titles seem to be a handful of important-sounding business words randomly thrown together, and I presume their actual contributions to be of similar depth and necessity. - I still feel that DocuSign is more a sales-focused organization than an engineering-focused one. Some may not see this as a negative, but I certainly do. - The anticipated IPO was used as a carrot to entice potential employees as long as three and a half years ago, and still is not imminent, AFAIK. Lots of pre-IPO companies do this, especially in tech, but that doesn't make it any less distasteful. Additionally, there is a fair amount of secrecy and even duplicity around it, which I find to be both unnecessary and counterproductive.
