Pros

When you run through multiple loops, searching for that next best thing, it's not only them interviewing you, it's also you interviewing them. Databricks was one of the five in my panel and was the only one w/zero red flags. I was impressed by pretty much the entire process and especially by the level of talent. Greatness attracts greatness, so if you are looking for that set of people and challenges to solve, come interview here and make up your own mind.

Cons

If you are coming from a mature company, you'll have to spend some time figuring out how their IT systems piece together. It's not bad, but it's also not (yet) turn key.

Pros

I had wonderful recruiting experience. The process was quick and fast. I was given timely updates. Everyone during the interview process was friendly and was always respectful and courteous. Take home assignment was well designed and questions checked for in depth knowledge of concepts. So overall everything made sense.

Cons

i could not find any cons. Only one thing i would like to suggest in recruiting process would be that , weightage given to references is bit high. I understand its important to check references but in a way i got a feeling that databricks trusted references more rather than their future employee.

Pros

This company is full of incredible people. The Databricks solution helps companies leverage their data to bring greater value to their organizations. Big Data and AI is an exciting space to work in!

Cons

Not sure this is a con - but something to know. The SDR role is a 12 month minimum (maybe longer) before you move up the trajectory. (to AE, management, etc.)
