Thank you so much for taking the time to leave this review. We love to hear that you've felt supported by your leaders in your success on the Sales team and how you're advancing in your career here at Datadog. Our people-first culture is aimed at giving employees the opportunity to grow, succeed and celebrate with colleagues globally, and we're glad you've experienced the workplace programs we put in place, such as Party Pups, to bring activities back to the office place as we return to a hybrid work culture. We appreciate all you do for Datadog, and are lucky to have you as part of the pack!

Pros

- Best culture I've ever been a part of, and that continues to be true as the company scales. - Management takes work-life balance seriously. I know very few people who feel their workload isn't manageable. - Management is approachable, transparent, and non-pretentious

Cons

- This is an engineering company through and through. If you like engineering problems and engineers, this is a pro. If not, could be a con. - Certain roles (sol. eng/support) are a bit underpaid

We appreciate you leaving this feedback, and are humbled by your praise of our company culture. We're passionate about creating a workplace where employees feel empowered to grow, innovate, and excel, and we're glad that you've also felt supported by the leadership team. We'll be the first to admit that our product and company was built by engineers, for engineers, when we started 10+ years ago, but we're actively working to build our internal employee engagement team to create a workplace that feels inclusive to all our roles and departments across the company and around the world. And we do revisit compensation to ensure we're competitive and fair based on market assessments, and will continue to do so. Thank you so much for your transparency as feedback like this only helps us continue to become a better workplace for our employees. We appreciate all you do to help Datadog grow!

Thank you so much for taking the time to leave this review. We're glad you've had a positive experience with our innovative product, top-level professional development program, and people-driven benefits. We appreciate the transparency around ramp time in the Sales department and will work with our Sales Enablement team to ensure we have the best possible process in place to create an environment of success for all Reps who are onboarding. Favoritism is not something we condone as an organization, and we encourage you to share this feedback with your People Business Partner so that we can address this with any leadership involved. Thank you again for sharing this review, and know that we are grateful to have you as part of the pack.
