Thank you for sharing this review, and we're glad to hear that you're enjoying the training, sales culture, and working alongside your colleagues. However, the cons you've shared are not representative of the Datadog experience we strive to provide our employees - and we're sorry this has been your experience while on our Sales team. We encourage you to escalate these concerns to your People Business Partner so we can learn more about your situation, and work with you and your manager so you feel better supported at Datadog.

Pros

- Great pay - Good work / life balance - Product is well-designed and good at what it does and is thoughtfully expanding to new use cases - Product used by biggest (and coolest) companies on planet - Everyone on product & engineering is extremely intelligent, most are thoughtful and kind - You spend little to no time managing Jira or writing tickets, mostly focusing on vision and execution

Cons

- 401k match should be 10%, right now it's essentially nothing - After passing interviews, I lost other job offers to wait for team matching (takes time to find a team)

Pros

Datadog has excellent products and has made some really strong hires in CS over the last 24 months. CS at Datadog is the standard for how this function should operate at a large company, and even though there are sometimes obvious growing pains, our leadership team is working things out with fairness and a long-term vision in mind.

Cons

Product usage and pricing can get confusing internally and externally. We are a 3-day in-office hybrid workforce. Salary is starting to get more competitive elsewhere.
