Reviews about "growing pains"
Return to all Reviews- Current Employee, more than 3 years★★★★★
DocuSign is committed to doing delivering value to customers, employees and shareholders
RecommendCEO ApprovalBusiness OutlookPros
DocuSign backs up their commitment to employees with actual actions. Pulse surveys are sent to employees twice a year and leadership takes meaningful action to address the highest rated issues.
Cons
Some growing pains have been felt in the past year. As the scale of the projects have grown we have had to make some adjustments to continue to deliver.
Thank you for taking the time to share your thoughts. It's good to hear that you see leadership take meaningful action on pulse surveys (I agree!)

Thanks for sharing your detailed thoughts. This is very helpful to candidates. Great to hear you think employees are listed to and wonderful to hear you like working for your manager. Hope you got a chance to read the pages on the Hub about relocations. If not, take a peak.

Pros
DocuSign is the place to be, the company leadership has shown how much they care about the employees especially during the pandemic. There is ample opportunity to grow and show your talent.

Wonderful to hear you find your colleagues engaged.
- Current Employee, less than 1 year★★★★★
Pros
Fantastic work/life balance! I keep expecting to get weekend emails and super urgent pings from leadership that sends everyone scrambling but that just doesn't happen. Not a small company but everyone seems to be on the same page about the balanced culture and respecting people's time. There are a lot of vets who have been employees for a long time and also a lot of fresh blood. This seems to be well received and a nice balance for both sides of the fence. The new people are eager to understand how the company has evolved (I personally am) and the long timers are eager for new ideas on how to solve (some times old) problems. You can make an impact very quickly with just the knowledge you bring!
Cons
Definitely growing pains as expected. There is some immaturity in basic processes (finance for example) that you wouldn't expect at this stage in their growth and some teams are very slow to change.

Thank you for sharing your detailed thoughts. It's great to hear that you like the balance between vets and new employees with fresh ideas. Great to hear you find people respect each others's time and that you can make an impact quickly. Our CTOO is working on improving our business operations across the board. Feel free to send her any ideas.
- Current Employee, more than 1 year★★★★★
Pros
I've been here a year and it's the best move I've made. The product is undeniably amazing and they continue to find ways to make it better and cater to the customers needs. Leadership takes the time to hear you and get in the trenches with you as a team. If you don't understand what the Work of your Life is, they'll sit down and help you thought it. The people, culture and over-all values are spot on and based on that, I would retire here.
Cons
There are growing pains as every company has but DocuSign tackles each one and puts their best foot forward.
