Pros

Datadog is a company that truly cares about its employees. The company invests in tools to ensure employees have everything they need to succeed in their roles. Even during this pandemic, I was able to complete the hiring process (thanks Kelly L!) and on-boarding was seamless (thanks Uliana B.!).

Cons

In my opinion, there aren't any cons to working at Datadog.

Pros

Datadog has been performing well and has a positive business outlook. Teammates are consistently helpful in pushing goals over the line together. It fosters a culture of humility that I am happy to be part of.

Cons

It is a high growth company! Like any growth, it comes with growing pains with new learnings.

Pros

Great food and snacks. Company has potentially bright future. Great for fresh out of college.

Cons

The average age of the company is maybe mid to late 20s. The company hires young workers to burn them out and they move on, very few people had confidence in their career growth at the company. The company is late to the game in most product development and certifications (fedramp) while competition has secured advantages in those topics. This is causing a focus on sales rather than product development. With the quarantine in place, business will be affected because of the focus on the types of customers we rely on while or competition has larger rainy day fund than we do. The company itself has a potentially bright future but the direction of the company is not inspiring.
