Pros

Strong cloud native technology that solves some key business challenges Competition closing gap quickly.

Cons

Databricks is by far the worst company that I have ever worked for. The culture is toxic in every way. You spend more time justifying your existence in endless management reviews, than working to deliver value to customers and technology partners. There is no work life balance to the constant micromanagement from the in-country leadership team, who offer no positive input to customer engagements, and have little interest in up lifting or supporting their team. The same can be said for more experienced and tenured Solution Architects, who are very difficult to work with, and treat their colleagues with contempt. I would not recommend this company for anyone who is looking for a collaborative, positive and supportive workplace.

Pros

I really don't recommend anyone to join Salesforce team at Databricks. No work life balance. Unrealistic expectations. Expected to spend more than 15 Hours to spend for companies since managers are spending same time.

Cons

No work life balance. expected to work more than 15 Hours for the company because management folks are spending time. 80% of the Salesforce resources gets really low points for various reasons and the reasons are laughable
