Pros

Energized, transparent and collaboration culture. This is a rocketship that requires to be open to learning and be educated. The mid-long term vision is spectacular, and the day to day business in sales is good. Be prepared to work hard, and to select your battles, because there's plenty of things to do.

Cons

G-Docs is not my favorite, and I would like to be able to choose other than Mac.

Pros

I still can't believe I work here... it is absolutely an amazing company to work for. From the compensation (better than FAANG), to the people (hardworking, smart, and kind), to the culture (100% transparency from the C-Suite and Ali), this company is a rocket ship. The product is stellar, the company is growing rapidly, and the customer stories are incredible. Can't recommend it enough!

Cons

As we grow at a breakneck pace, keep the bar for talent high and don't lower it. Quality over quantity.

Pros

-Executive team is unbelievably engaged and tuned into the industry -I've worked for competitors & there is a clear difference you get to enjoy at Databricks with an engineering-first culture. Whenever you get to the right level of conversations the credibility we can build just based on our tech build so much confidence.

Cons

-Comp plans have been confusing at times, there has been a focus on new logos yet no real comp incentives around it
