Pros

Datadog has it all. To be frank and honest, I was a bit sceptic reluctant to look into a company like Datadog. But from the very first interview I got to learn that Datadog was a place to grow. In this industry we do not always get the benefit of being our own person, of being able to fail or to keep our own voice. From the first day of joining, the on-boarding process is flawless and carved out to follow your enablement learning curve. I am now 6 months in and so happy that I took the opportunity to join a team like Datadog.

Cons

As Datadog is a engineering enterprise, being a sales person here also means that you need to ramp yourself up and learn the foundation, However, it is not fair to put it under Cons as it also is the biggest part of my growth - how I need to push myself to learn every day. So what I want to highlight here, is that the first period can feel a bit overwhelming before it all comes together.

Pros

Great training and support. Company does a good job at making people want to stay with free food, fitness, events. However, it is a relentless and unforgiving job at times and you really, really need to grind to do well.

Cons

Work life balance and stress.
