Pros

Incredibly bright and driven organization with a clear sense of purpose. The energy is infectious!

Cons

Typical of many companies, lots of fire drills and too many opportunities to chase with too few people to achieve them.

Thanks for sharing your thoughts. Yes, there are lots of opportunities. We need to work together to prioritize and stay focused. And then support people who push back and ask us to prioritize. We can get distracted by the energy and excitement. Yes is not always the right answer. When we prioritize, we can all be more productive.

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.
