Pros

Compensation is competitive and the company is poised for rapid growth.

Cons

Interview process was so long and communication was so poor that it almost certainly deters high-quality applicants. Absence of work-life balance. Toxic, self-important culture.

Pros

Databricks has the clearest vision, best leadership, highest level of talent and most hard working/inclusive culture of any company I've ever seen. Everyone leans in to ensure the organisation delivers on its goals, and the culture is one where you can get help whenever you ask for it, whilst always having loads of fun. It's a fast paced environment, which means you're constantly learning new things and every day brings new and exciting opportunities. The culture is based on humility, honesty and hard work, and the camaraderie and team ethos in the sales team is the best you're likely to find at any fast paced technology company. All in all, working at Databricks is quite simply an opportunity you don't want to miss.

Cons

There are none that I can think of. I enjoy working somewhere fast paced, where there are loads of opportunities and everyone works hard as part of a team, which is exactly what Databricks is.

Pros

Building an amazing product is one thing - but when a company is centered around ensuring clients are successful and employees are happy, engaged and sponsor ideas that foster growth and innovation - it is an awesome combination. Love it here, and the core values continue to be placed front and center!

Cons

Not so much a negative, rather, it's important to keep in mind that this is a highly desirable technology space to be in, meaning it brings a lot of competition - meaning, you always have to be comfortable with being a little uncomfortable in learning new things, knowing the space, knowing the product as it's a high paced, quickly changing environment.
