Pros

-Some of the most talented and collaborative people I've ever met -Led by a really great exec team, that stay true to the community that made the product successful - maintaining our commitment to the open-source community with every product we release -An amazing product that only gets better with time. When we work with companies that believe in the product, the benefits are unimaginable. -Starting as an SDR, there is a clear understanding that the company will help you on your career path beyond that role. -Some amazing perks that I still can't believe exist.

Cons

-Not enough women/diversity in leadership. I see this changing over the course of the next year, and the Diversity & Inclusion team is currently doing a really great job. -Sometimes not enough transparency. Definitely better than bigger tech companies, but sometimes we're expected to accept changes without enough clarification.

Pros

Databricks will provide you with the unique opportunity to be part of something great. You are working with the smartest people in the industry and will get support from everyone if you are just asking for it. People at databricks care about each other because everyone is always giving 150% to ensure our customers are successful. The company culture from top to bottom is extremely transparent so everyone fells like an owner.

Cons

There is huge opportunity waiting for you at databricks but only for those who are willing to give their best every single day.

Pros

Great Product for ETL, Good brand awareness

Cons

Most middle management / sales directors do not understand product, have no interest in meeting clients, and simply repeat the GRIT Mantra. Often find yourself needing to do internal busy work over external client meetings. Have hired to many sales people - fight for accounts won by those who have been at DB longest. BOYS CLUB
