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 appreciate you taking the time to share your honest feedback. We're glad to know that you had a positive experience in terms of our sales culture and gained knowledge, and we thank you for sharing your concerns around quota and career progression. We're growing at a rapid rate, which does mean we set high expectations and goals for quotas to keep up with that growth, but our processes are something we continue to revisit to ensure they scale alongside us. Internal mobility and professional development is top of mind for the Sales Development organization - we want to see our representatives growing internally and strive to ensure that everyone feels empowered to do so. Both our Sales Enablement and Talent Development teams provide numerous resources to support this. We value this feedback as we continue to look inward at ways we can continue to improve.
