Pros

The overall team is great at Datadog with many supportive individuals and a great place to be to grow your technical skills. Working at Datadog has taught me soo many different technologies and having to work in the tech industry is a great asset to have when starting your career. The work is never repetitive and you are always working on newer technologies and supporting clients with their requests. I have highly recommended this company to family and friends and see a very bright future for this magnificent organisation!

Cons

Workload could get quite busy at times. Sometimes it could be too much and really is not everyone's cup of tea.

We appreciate you taking the time to leave this review. A top priority for leadership right now is actively building out Datadog's own Recruiting team in order to keep up with the speed and scale at which we're aiming to hire onto our teams in this hypergrowth environment. Thank you for this feedback, and know it's an area we're actively working to scale to avoid any strain as we continue our aim in fostering a culture where people feel they can do their best work.
