      Pros

      Good health insurance, unlimited sick leave. Size of the company means fewer solos between sales, product, operations, etc. Undefined roles mean you can wear multiple hats, which can be a fun challenge and great growth opportunity.

      Cons

      For all the wonderful people around (and a couple bright spots), there are more than a few bad apples (sexist, finger-pointing bullies). And the good people generally refuse to do anything about the bullying and will sideline those who dare to speak up. The women in leadership tend to be either willfully blind or bullies themselves. Your options become to grin and bear it... or leave.

      Pros

      - Attractive talent pool of smart, motivated and overall brilliant employees - Desire to foster a diverse, inclusive environment - Strong emphasis on personal development and self-improvement - Efforts to build an accessible and empathetic leadership group, from CEO down - Quick, effective decision-making amid global pandemic - Supportive network and available tools for mental health and well-being

      Cons

      - Unnecessary micromanagement from some managers - Welcoming environment but difficult to navigate as a newcomer as processes and company layout are not always clear - US-centric approach not conducive to building a global company - Expectation to always be "switched on" and connected to comms, including on days off and after reasonable working hours

It’s incredibly important to the Executive Leadership team that everyone feels safe and supported during this time which is why we took decisive action at the earliest stages of this pandemic. We know this is a stressful time for many of our employees, so we encourage everyone to take the time they need to recharge. If that is ever an issue, please reach out directly to me or anyone on the People Team at HR@dataminr.com. We continually strive to do better, and we’ll look to take on board your comments around greater transparency, accountability and how we can improve our approach to strengthening a global mindset among our teams.
