Great company-mediocre leadership

CEO approval

Business Outlook

Pros

Great package overall! Offices are unique locations, and the vibe is great at the office. The colleagues are amazing. Learning and development within Datadog is very well structured and help you grow in our careers

Cons

Extremely childish culture. It feels like managers take care of a bunch of kids. Not a fan of the culture within the sales department for that reason. Plus targets are the same worldwide with no reason, resulting in certain markets making bank and others being a struggle. The 1:3 (1 sdr for 3 AE) slpit ratio is completely off, leading to AE only doing an SDR job at this point. A 1:1 or 1:2 split would be best in this economy. Never saw culture or values being put in action/put to use

Getting from Bad to WORST

CEO approval

Business Outlook

Pros

1) Free lunch 2) Good training to be an SDR/Account Executive 3) Good wellness stipend

Cons

1) Account quality is terrible.. everyone is finding their own accounts but the internal Salesforce system is so bad (duplicate accounts, accounts with 2 person on linkedin etc) 2) NEARLY impossible to hit target.. everyone is working overnight to double up as SDR, SalesOps, Marketing even though we're underappreciated by the Account Executive team 3) US Leadership is blind to all the problems in ASEAN... weird focus on pipeline generation and cold calling instead of hosting events or set up a marketing team in a very relationship based ASEAN Market (everything is a direct copy and paste approach from USA to Singapore) 4) TOO many AEs in the company... severe account saturation.... only 4 people in a team of abput 30 AEs are hitting their targets
