Pros

- Decent coworkers - High impact projects - PTO/Office snacks/Hybrid working

Cons

- IC job titles don't mean anything in marketing (specialist, manager, sr. manager) you're all doing the same level of work - No promotions, lack of career development. Management prefers to hire externally than promote internally. For example, people will switch roles or leave the company and they will hire a backfill externally a level higher. - People are expected take on additional work when coworkers leave (which is constant btw) - Incompetent leadership and managers, lack of direction, gaslighting, very political, bullying, leadership never takes accountability or makes changes despite constant feedback, managers will take credit for your work - Expectation to work above and beyond with no reward or recognition - Working relationship with PLG is demanding and very one-sided, not very collaborative - Constant sense of urgency, management always expects you to launch something ASAP, everything is a P0, fire drills, your plate will always be full

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.
