Pros

The technology is very powerful, the people are some of the most talented I've seen. Many of the early hires set the stage for really valuable efforts -- the level of business maturity is amazing for a company this young.

Cons

Definitely long hours due to lots to do. Some disorganization and knowledge spread via word-of-mouth. The office feels like a startup -- some duct tape holding things together. All standard for a fast-growing startup, and very minor.

Pros

Databricks is on its way to becoming one of the iconic software companies which mark this century. Our enterprise grade Unified Data Analytics Platform is a market leader for next generation distributed computing, big data, and AI. We deliver a friction free devops environment, purpose built to break down silos between data engineers, data scientists, and business analysts, with a security first approach to all features including access to compute and data. We have shaped the open source ecosystem through Spark, Delta Lake, MLflow, and Koalas. And we are just getting started!

Cons

Databricks is not for everyone. Whoever joins must have a "we over me" mentality; otherwise, that individual will be misfit with the wider cultural norms. This is only a negative for those who are looking for something else.
