Pros

great product, very smart people. Comp is generally good, and company has done very well over the years so stock has done well. Product continues to expand offerings at an impressive rate. Highly capable leadership

Cons

Gotten a bit top heavy with too many managers/directors in recent years, and the other annoying things that come with big company bloat

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.
