      Great people, poor leadership

      Anonymous employee

      CEO approval
      Business Outlook

      Pros

      Great pay and perks. It's great to work alongside top talent with innovative ideas, who genuinely want to do good work

      Cons

      Diversity and inclusion is a major issue here. Leadership lack openness and transparency on the topic. Unwillingness to codify competencies and career paths in a meaningful way makes career development difficult.

      Pros

      The pace at which we are growing and innovating makes it so every day I am learning something new. It's impossible to be bored or complacent at this company and I've learned more in the last 3 years than I have in my entire career. Not to mention, the leadership team is one you genuinely want to work hard for. I plan to work at Datadog for a long time and see it at a defining moment in my own career!

      Cons

      Definitely experiencing some growing pains in terms of internal process and paths to promotion.
