Pros

1) The people: Throughout the organization it is clear that DocuSign excels at hiring quality people. From Exec’s to my fellow SDR’s everyone treats each other with respect and empathy. 2) The SDR role: As a young sales person learning the cycle effectively can be tedious and energy draining. At DocuSign, they don’t fire you if you’re underperforming or in a rut. They encourage you to make little improvements! Lead distribution, the Sandler method and potentially collaborating (see cons) with AE’s & fellow XDR’s are all huge benefits of being an SDR at DocuSign! 3) Benefits: Coming straight out of college a big fear of many young people today are the hidden cost of being an adult. Insurance, DocuSign has you covered! Commuting to work, DocuSign mitigates the cost! Wanting to make a healthy habit, DocuSign will pay for your gym membership! Overall, get on LinkedIn and ask SDR’s currently at DocuSign there thoughts on these Pros. They’ll all agree!

Cons

27 month minimum to be an AE Moving to an AM or making a lateral move in the company is very competitive DocuSign under pays in the sales role compared to other Tech companies. Though it’s an easier sell, has better benefits than the majority and has stock plan/401k match that will help you retire. So take this point with a grain of salt!

Pros

Seriously, it's all about luck with your manager and territory. If you land a good one, the money can really flow. Honestly, you don't even need to deep dive into the details. Just hope for the best and you might strike gold. It's a real gamble sometimes, but that's how it goes.

Cons

Seriously, these sales quotas feel designed for us to fall flat on our faces. It's wild how management sometimes pushes us towards tactics that feel a little sketch. And don't even get me started on selling IAM; it's a real uphill battle. Honestly, the leadership here just isn't cutting it. It's frustrating to feel like you're set up for failure and not getting the support you need.
