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.

Pros

Cons

Boring product. Extremely boring. No inbound leads, very few get good ones and when they do they are big so it is like waiting for something great to come your way so you can have the pressure relief. Lots of activity. They live and breath PG

We appreciate you taking the time to leave this feedback, and are glad you saw so much value in the training and mentorship we strive to champion across the company. We do operate in a highly technical industry where there is a lot of product innovation and rely on our Sales team to both educate and support the scale of customers, working with them to adopt the products that they need from Datadog in order to grow. But we recognize that this might not be the industry for everyone's personal and professional passions. We appreciate all you contributed to our growing customer base while at Datadog, and wish you all the luck on your next career journey.
