Pros

Databricks has a world class engineering team and strong eng/product focus amongst the founding and executive teams. Fast revenue growth and a chance to work on a widely adopted technology impacting the analytics space. Culture of humility, hustle, and customer obsession. All the founders are still deeply involved in the company and help maintain the culture.

Cons

Growing pains consistent with any startup growing at this pace. Most pains are addressed with time, but it can take time.

Pros

A product that makes the world a better place, by empowering organizations to make data-driven decisions, in BI, in drug discovery, in scientific research, etc. Rapid growth company, probably the fastest for this stage of enterprise software company in Silicon Valley (and the world). A star, experienced executive team that has taken companies from zero to IPO before. All founders actively involved, maintaining the culture of the company.

Cons

Scaling challenges common to this stage of the growth Work can get hectic compared with more mature companies
