Pros

- The company provides competitive salary and benefits. So you can live that cozy, buffered comfortable life. - Work/life balance was excellent

Cons

- Fear driven leadership, just from my experience. But there may have been great managers that I didn't get to interact with.

Thank you for taking the time to write this review and we're glad you were able to maintain a healthy work/life balance during your time with us. At Datadog, we do not promote, nor tolerate, a fear-driven culture and hope that all Datadogs take these concerns to their People Business Partner should they encounter it.

We're sorry that you haven't enjoyed our office spaces. After two years of full-time remote work, however, we do believe that a hybrid workplace experience is the best option to encourage the innovation and collaboration that happens in person. Many employees also missed being in person with their coworkers, as well as the perks of our office catered lunches, co-working spaces, team activities and more. Thank you for taking the time to share this feedback and we encourage you to share any additional concerns you may have with your manager or People Business Partner.

Our Talent Development team runs regular manager trainings across the company to help better arm our leaders with the tools to grow successful teams and individuals, and we've seen a positive impact on leadership practices coming out of these trainings. We will continue our focus on leader and manager development so that they can further promote success for their team members. We're grateful for the impact you have on our North America Commercial Sales organization and encourage you to continue sharing this feedback with us so we can take actions to improve every day.
