Pros

-Good benefits (unlimited PTO, free lunches, fitness allowance, generous health insurance etc) - Great product which customers can't get enough of -The most structured onboarding and enablement programs you can find- company invests heavily in the learning and development of employees -Company branding and performance is so strong you'll have little difficulty getting job offers/head hunted -No BS work culture

Cons

-In CS you're essentially doing a sales role with no commission + taking care of customer enquiries/complaints/issues- way overworked -Compensation is way below market rate -Promotions take forever despite consistent performance- losing lots of reps due to this -Incompetent middle management

Thank you for leaving this feedback. As an organization which prides itself on customer-centricity, we love hearing the positive sentiment you've experienced with customers and the impact our innovative product has had on their growing businesses. Our culture is rooted in a growth-mindset, and we do invest heavily in the development and enablement of our employees to ensure their success within Datadog. While we strive to build a workplace that employees are proud to be a part of, we also want to ensure that employees are happy and fulfilled in their roles from all perspectives (including compensation, career development and workload). We take employee feedback seriously and constantly use it to solve for departmental challenges that our employees are facing (including reviewing feedback from our internal employee surveys twice a year). We also encourage you to speak with your People Business Partner on any of these topics so together we can create the best workplace we can for our employees.
