Pros

It’s been the best decision of my career to join Databricks. Everyone’s smart and humble, no egos, just amazing teamwork. The product is the best on the market and we keep innovating at breakneck speed. The company is successful as a business and provides a level of transparency that is unheard of at this scale. Great compensation and perks. Amazing company culture that everybody exudes.

Cons

I can’t think of any.
