That's a bit of an oversimplification to be fair. They offer multiple products (esignature, contract lifecycle management). Does not change that it's still a lot of employees.

Seems very high, yes. My bet most of those are working in compliance/legal stuff. DocuSign is accepted pretty much everywhere.

Enterprise marketing and sales always takes up a LOT of people.

The Enterprise is PROFITABLE. The issue is that normally There Can Be Only One(tm).

The "security" companies like Auth0 were worth gigabucks NOT because they had a superior technical solution but because they managed to crack some number of large customers who now were never going to remove that system and would now be a cash cow forevermore.

It's enterprise software. 2/3 of headcount are probably sales, support engineers, deployment, compliance, legal, etc.

That's not just what DocuSign does, except for their smallest customers.

6300 now, and I feel like the number should be closer to 630.
