Pros

I can develop myself in the AI environment with my experience from consulting and from the automotive group. In my role, I can focus on my customers. In parallel, I work on being close enough to the software and the possibilities and am supported by Databricks in my own upskilling. Databricks gives me the freedom and opportunities to do a great job here. At the same time, I have great colleagues around me from whom I can learn a lot. The salary is also great with all the extras.

Cons

After more than a year with Databricks, I have no comments to make about the Cons. It is up to myself, if I am dissatisfied with something, to solve the issue. And that is definitely possible here and my colleagues and managers support me.

Pros

* Management is very transparent * Intelligent coworkers * Very cooperative atmosphere * Work-life balance is respected * Company is doing well

Cons

* The bar is high * Company is growing fast. I'm fine with this, but you'll need to be comfortable with change * If you blindly take on any challenge and accept every meeting invite, your WLB will suffer

Laying off people and not a good experience

Pros

Comp was OK Equity Good tech

Cons

Micromanagement and not all all empowering. Things seem to move very slowly because of the level of micromanagement. Layoffs and no support or concern at all for those that were impacted. Very much a “this is how we do it here” culture which was surprising for a disruptive tech company. Goals and objectives not clearly defined, so you don’t know what to focus on. Apparent favoritism for those that have relationships with leadership. Many layers of management for a company of this size.
