Best place I've ever worked

Pros

I've been in tech in NYC for more than 15 years, and I've never worked at a place I've enjoyed more. People are here to do excellent work. We use modern tech to solve very hard problems, and collaborate. It's an open, enthusiastic environment. Also the company has a real, successful business and is growing very fast. With that, there is a ton of career growth opportunity. We're solving crucial problems for companies of all sizes from brand new startups to Fortune 100s.

Cons

It can be hard to find a meeting room as we quickly expand space and grow, expand space and grow.

Pros

- Building from the ground up - Datadog's Dublin office is still in the first months of it's inception. Growth has been rapid, and the culture is fantastic. - As early joiners, everyone has a say, and their contributions count. - The product is fantastic, and without one single platform rival. - Really collaborative culture across departments and team. - Fantastic leadership, managers encourage and facilitate rather than number crunch. - Not much of the traditional tech 'culture' being pushed, much more easygoing - Competitive wages - Fantastic perks

Cons

- Pro or con depending on the person, and less so as time passes, but as the Dublin office ramps, there's some responsibility to work things out yourself and be proactive

Supportive culture, strong leadership

Pros

Lots of talented, helpful people around. The leadership team is steering the company in great directions. The company is growing incredibly fast but still feels like a calm, organized, and fun place

Cons

The company is transitioning from being a startup to being a serious business. As mor structure is put in place it is sometime unevenly communicated. You are equally likely to encounter processes that have no systemic approach or a robust one. It's often part of the job to navigate this and learn the right way to get something done.
