Datadog Response
3yWe appreciate you taking the time to share your candid feedback with us, and we are sorry to hear that you are not having a positive experience at Datadog. The Technical Solutions team is imperative to our company growth and we take all feedback seriously.
Something that is important for us at Datadog is that employees know they always have someone to go to, and have forums to voice their concerns and feedback. Our team of People Business Partners are always available for confidential conversations on ways to better foster that open and collaborative culture. We encourage you to take these concerns regarding management to your People Business Partner so that we can come together to find solutions to the challenges. We also have bi-annual employee engagement surveys that are anonymous to provide candid feedback. Those are reviewed and analyzed to then action plan with leadership.
Additionally, our Talent Development team runs regular manager trainings across the company to better arm our leaders with the right tools to successfully grow their teams and team members. We will continue to have all people leaders participate in these sessions, as we've seen the impact that these trainings have had on teaching great leadership practices moving forward. We also strive to set every employee up for success from day one and build out a robust onboarding plan with the hiring team so that employees continue to experience that support well into their careers at Datadog but, as mentioned, we value feedback and always want to know where there is room to improve. While hyper growth companies do undergo challenges, we are better together and only know what we know because of feedback that is given. Thank you for this insight.
