Pros

My paychecks come on time.

Cons

Don’t trust the positive reviews, HR offers rewards if you post one. All they care about are number of tickets solved. They’ll cancel your PTO and give you more work only to tell you that you’re suddenly under performing. But don’t worry, you’ll get a tshirt if you solve enough to not get fired.

Thank you for providing this feedback, and we apologize that your experience at Datadog has been anything but positive. We do not currently, nor have we ever, condoned rewards for employee reviews. We do encourage Datadogs to share their honest experience on Glassdoor - both what they enjoy and where we have room to improve. On the emphasis for return to office - we do believe that there is a high value in in-person collaboration, but we also recognize and pride ourselves in being a flexible workplace in order to support employees. That is why we continue to operate as a hybrid workplace environment to allow employees and teams to find the balance that is appropriate for them. For our Solutions Engineers, we are continuing to build out a comprehensive program that rewards and recognizes ticket quality + quantity, among other things. We will share your sentiment with our People Business Partners to ensure your feedback doesn't go unheard, but we also encourage you to reach out directly to your People Business Partner to discuss any issues or concerns for your specific circumstances.

Thank you so much for taking the time to leave this review. We love to hear how supported you've felt from your Sales leadership team! This support is championed further by the collaboration of going into the office, and we value the creativity and relationships that are built through in-person interactions. We encourage you to continue to come into our beautiful, new Denver workspace, and know that we continue to put employee safety as our #1 priority as we return back to the offices after the last two years. We appreciate this feedback and your continued impact at Datadog!
