      Good Company, Bad Career Development for SDRs

      Sales development representative (sdr)
      Recommend
      CEO approval
      Business Outlook

      Pros

      Every time anyone says something about databricks they start out by saying how awesome it is. Awesome product, awesome CEO, awesome space, awesome co-workers, awesome clients, delicious kool-aid. It is a fantastic company with a pretty solid future ahead of it, if lake house is what they think. This company has to avoid being the next Cloudera

      Cons

      SDR work is broken. Other parts of the sales team and company are really solid One month, someone blew the quota out of the water and everyone's job got way harder overnight. What the heck! Apparently, a huge part of a sales development leader’s task is continually justifying the general existence of the SDR team as a whole. Not such a bad thing to get caught up in if you're learning and getting promoted, but nobody is. Join this company as an SDR if you want to be a stowaway on the rocket ship. You constantly overhear your manager defending your value to the captain, but you don’t really believe what they’re saying.

      Bad Choice for young professionals

      Sales development representative
      Recommend
      CEO approval
      Business Outlook

      Pros

      Great benefits, amazing product, outstanding CEO.

      Cons

      There is a systemic development problem within the sdr org. I would go to a more established company that is renowned for its training and career paths. As a young professional you need to go somewhere that will develop you and work hard to retain you. Unfortunately databricks is not that place right now.

      Best possible start to career in tech

      Sales development representative
      Recommend
      CEO approval
      Business Outlook

      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.
