Pros

- really nice and friendly people : Sakes engineers, customer support, SDR and this is it - interesting product

Cons

- Toxic environment - VP micro management - last managers hired at the image of the EMEA and APAC VP : hypocrisy, quick judgment, gossip - the job is too big for the VP : no emotional intelligence , no management. Since 2 years none of the sales made the target

I am glad that you enjoyed the people and our product. We strive to create a positive environment in which our employees thrive, and I'm unhappy to learn that this was not your experience. Our employees consistently highly recommend Dataminr as a great place to work, as noted in our annual employee satisfaction survey. They also overwhelmingly say that they are proud to work for Dataminr. Similarly, questions around confidence in our leadership team also yield high scores. We always appreciate input from former employees though, and would be open to listening if you would like to reach out and share further details.

Thank you for your review. It’s great to hear that you enjoy your colleagues and work in a suitable location. It’s unfortunate that your perception of senior management is poor. Our senior leadership team genuinely cares about our people and is passionate about our mission-driven work. We regularly hear great comments from our employees in our annual engagement survey. However, we know there is always more work to be done to lead the company well. We are committed to taking this feedback and keeping our door open for a more detailed conversation.

Pros

Employees used to work so hard for this place, all of that has been discarded this year as people have been fired in the most insulting way.

Cons

Calls for management transparency always fall on deaf ears
