+ Collaborative culture where people believe that success of the company equates to personal success. This is rare for Bay Area companies. + Transparent culture + Rocket ship growth + Highly intelligent coworkers + A lot of opportunities to excel and grow your career + I feel excited to refer friends to work here, can't say that about all companies I've worked for

Cons

- Technical people tend to be valued more than non-technical in some teams - Complex internal processes

Pros

Great teams made up of smart, motivated people. Databricks is an exciting place to work because it is part of the growing data and AI tools space. The benefits and income are also good overall.

Cons

Databricks no longer feels like a startup. There are now multiple layers of bureaucracy, and leadership can feel territorial rather than collaborative. Over time, it can seem like business growth and internal politics have become stronger drivers than innovation or employee experience. For long-tenured employees, it may become harder to stay excited or feel challenged. Other companies may offer a more energizing environment.
