      Pros

      Cant think of much exept of the cons.

      Cons

      Working in a multi national environment is great, but I do not think it's for everyone in leadership at Datadog. I have encountered so much not-so subtle racism and discrimination. Your achievements and performance doesn't really matter if a hiring manager puts you in a box and label you as 'less' than others. Surprisingly, didny expect this to be the case in the Amsterdam office. It is spirit-crushing to find yourself having to record conversations and save screenshots all the time to try and convince and proof to higher management and HR that youre in the right or being miss treated. And even when you do come forward with proof(s), their focus is to protect themselves with lies and misinformation until they think, you have no legal stand to sue. The managers that people have complained about over and over got promoted to be higher managers and directors. Happy to share names to assist management to know which cases I am talking about.

      Unplanned recruitment

      Pros

      The salary is reasonable. The products are excellent. The benefits are good. The working environment is also well taken care of.

      Cons

      Due to single-minded micromanagement, if your territory is not good, you will be pushed into a corner unnecessarily. It is unreasonable that you will not be included in the evaluation unless the usage fee is agreed upon in advance. Since it is ultimately a monitoring tool, it cannot be promoted unless it is for an important IT system. When customers are concerned about cost, even if you have an advantageous product, you may lose the project to another company.
