      Great product team Ridiculous Sales team

      Sr. solution architect
      Recommend
      CEO approval
      Business Outlook

      Pros

      Working with like minded folks who are super talented. Staying up to date with the latest and greatest in the space of Data and AI. Product and engineering teams are accessible and incredibly talented.

      Cons

      The go to market team has changed completely in the last two years and we now have corporate overlords from AWS and other cloud providers running the ship. The startup culture is slowly disappearing and work gets done by pointing fingers are sales people.

      work hard

      Staff recruiter
      Recommend
      CEO approval
      Business Outlook

      Pros

      It's definitely an enjoyable place to work, good leadership, you're constantly challenged, you'll learn skills here that you can't get at most places, and essentially be forced to level up in a lot of ways.

      Cons

      work/life balance is pretty minimal. slack is always on, and teams are pretty understaffed. you'll basically be doing the work of 1.5-2 people with very few tools, so it's a tough place for a lot of people.
