Pros

* A company that truly cares about its employees * Work Life balance is highly valued and encouraged * Benefits are really amazing * Culture and Vibe in the office is super positive and lively * Very diverse work-force with many Employee led groups for all types of interests and cultures

Cons

* IT is lacking. IT infrastructure is outdated and sometimes makes it a pain to work when the machines they provision are so slow and unresponsive.

Thank you for writing such a detailed review. Please share your feedback with Saran M. about IT. We received a lot of questions regarding certain benefits to support employees on our last All Hands Call. In addition to the $1000 DocuSign Cares allowance and $300 computer peripherals allowance we have invested in support in overall well-being, mental health and also child and elder care subsidies to those who really need it. We continue to look for other ways to build community through speaker series like the one we held recently with Steven Kerr and Pastor Mike. we realize these initiatives will not satisfy every employee fully, but hopefully most feel appreciated.

Pros

Speaking only for engineering: the compensation, time off, and parental leave are generous. People work between 30-40 hours a week on a lot of dev teams. The product itself is useful, automates drudge work, and is good for the environment, so it's something I'm proud to be helping deliver. We're also very proud of our sites' security and uptime.

Cons

Speaking only for engineering: the organization is under-invested in tooling (prefers to re-invent the wheel badly than bother learning how to use industry standard open source tools). Doing the simplest programming tasks turns into days-long misadventures due to no serious will to pay down tech debt and lack of docs. We have slow release cycles like an old company. "Tenured" engineers tend to have a bunker mentality and hate other engineering teams the farther removed they are from them. People generally feel too far behind to put any serious effort into helping their teammates (varies by team). Companies acquired by DocuSign are often not gracefully integrated in engineering processes, and are often asked to adopt inferior practices to their own. Some people in operations work 50-80 hour weeks and work in a toxic atmosphere. People talk about diversity a lot but mostly hire white and Asian dudes. Women in engineering generally don't like working here.
