Amazing Tech, Great People

Anonymous employee

Pros

Really smart and collaborative people. I don't think I have worked with nicer folks before. The tech has always been strong, but now it's starting to accelerate. Some of the AI capabilities really are industry-leading, and there are so many stories of the positive impact it is having for our users, which is nice to hear. Dataminr should share more of these stories publicly, there are so many.

Cons

Lots of leadership changes across the company. But I suppose it's good to make changes if needed. Salaries probably aren't as competitive as they used to be, but still fair. I know lots of companies have had to keep an eye on costs over the last few years.

Pros

I've been at Dataminr for a while now, and I've had an amazing experience. I've grown and been challenged more than I ever thought I would. I've been given difficult projects but with a supportive and collaborative team to work with me, it has never felt overwhelming. There's always something new to learn, especially in the field of AI, and my manager encourages both professional and personal development. Highly recommend for anyone looking for a meaningful career in AI and tech.

Cons

At times the work can be demanding but I have relished the challenge of working at a high-tempo to serve our customers.

Thank you for sharing your sentiments about your time at Dataminr. We care deeply about the employee experience and demonstrate it in several ways, from our employee-centric benefits, to our attractive compensation offerings, to our daily investment in the business and the cultural benefits experienced through strong, authentic DEI initiatives. Increasing and strengthening internal communications has been an area of opportunity that we've worked hard to improve over the past year and we are proud of the successes we've experienced. Admittedly, it's a journey and consistency is key, and we are committed to improving and growing.
