Pros

Working on the cutting edge of information discovery with intelligent, motivated people. Good compensation and perks make you feel like your work is valued. Growth means opportunities for advancement.

Cons

The fast pace and high pressure are not for everybody. Workplaces can be crowded due to rapid growth.

Pros

Food, snacks are standard for tech startup, good selection.

Cons

CEO and executive team are heavily focused on image. This includes regular "pro-Dataminr" posts to Glassdoor to increase attractiveness of the company on this website - we are regularly encouraged to post positively and HR will coordinate. Lots of politics. Little transparency.

Pros

It's an amazing opportunity to start a career in a fast-paced, news-centered environment. The Dublin office is very new and quite small and everyone is very friendly, helpful and welcoming, so the atmosphere is amazing. However, it is not just about the Dublin office, the company itself cares for the employees and strives to provide everything we need. During my training I have been trained by several Senior Managers from other offices. They took very personalized approach with me and as far as I've experienced the company always encourages employees to directly contact any of their staff including Senior Manages and VPs. Every employee's opinion is valued and listened to. It's a very achievement-driven company and the perks are amazing and nothing like I have ever seen before in any other job. It's so extremely encouraging and gives you so many different opportunities to be creative and develop your own interests within Dataminr, as well as professional growth.

Cons

The interview process is a bit lengthy (but totally worth it). I haven't spotted anything else so far and neither have my colleagues.
