Hey there, firstly thank you for all your contributions - with a tenure like yours I am certain you were involved in some really impactful work. Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback with the Glassdoor community! I agree, that our team has unlimited paid leave sets a tone of work/life integration and balance. Our team members are able to take the time they need when they need it and our team leads and executive team model this ensuring it is a consistent and accessible benefit. You are also correct in that our teams, for the most part, are able to set their own OKRs. Yes, we always collaborate to ensure that everyone is on the same page, but largely we let the team members lead. The same is true for our performance management, everything begins with a self-assessment, which in addition to performance details, includes feedback for management and desired future development. I am not sure I understand your assertion "that you can't simply 'work'." What we see every day is empowered team members getting work done, serving our customers, and progressing towards goals. Thanks again for sharing your thoughts.

Thank God for SiteDocs

Pros

The biggest pro, is SiteDocs. They are crushing their goals and consistently outperform GoCanvas and DeviceMagic. As long as they continue to crush, it will make this company valuable.

Cons

An extremely slow innovation culture and an outdated tech stack that is uninspiring to work on, and doesn't help further our careers in a red hot employment market.

Hey there, thank you for taking the time to share your thoughts with the Glassdoor community. Firstly, thank you for your contributions! With a tenure of over 4 years in our engineering team, you most certainly have had your fingerprints on web forms, workhub, and toolkits, some of our big projects in the last few years. You really hit on something important here; when we are evaluating companies as a part of our M&A strategy, we look at companies that are complementary to us. Each of the companies has significant strengths and together we are a more robust organization. If you have found principles in your work with the SiteDocs team that are valuable and you would like to implement in your team, I encourage you to have that discussion with your team lead. We love feedback, (and have many ways to give it directly and anonymously) and in an 'always-learning' culture like ours, opportunities for growth are always appreciated. Thanks again for your contributions and sharing your thoughts.
