Pros

Incredibly diverse set of coworkers, covering their specific interest areas--feels like a grad school environment Free lunch good compensation well-defined day-to-day responsibilities incredible benefits package

Cons

It's unclear whether Dataminr will ever become the AI company that it tells investors, or whether it will remain the human-assisted AI company that it tells its employees it will. Like many tech companies Dataminr knows where it wants to be only until the next funding raise--past that its all dreams. unclear month-to-month responsibilities very limited advancement opportunities highly-siloed organizational structure anti-criticism management culture highly stressful and traumatic moments with very limited emotional management tools ("here's a month's subscription to Calm")

Pros

The teams are super nice to work with, the managers really care about the employees.

Cons

The hiring process is terrible. I've seen several highly qualified candidates go to waste due to discrepancies between the New York and the Seattle Office. One minute they want recent graduates, the next they want 10+ years experience. Also the coordination between offices is weak.
