Pros

Great company culture. Everyone I've met has been friendly, welcoming and generous with their time to help me onboard quickly. The benefits are incredible and the company keeps thinking of additional ways to support us. I have been amazed by how much the company genuinely cares about their employees. Dataminr has a world class solution that is defining the industry. I'm very proud to work here and take great pleasure in watching customers eyes light up when they see what our platform could do for their businesses.

Cons

Working remotely has made it more challenging to onboard than I'm typically used to but the team is consistently taking feedback and looking for ways to improve.

Pros

- Arguably the best group of people I have ever worked with. Insanely brilliant, enthusiastic and kind - Very ambitious hyper-growth start-up looking to settle as one of the best real-time alerting platforms in the market - Employees get a decent amount of autonomy and a good range of resources to develop their own ideas and skills - Entrepreneurial at all levels -> If you are not prepared to wear many hats, show initiative, or dive into problems as soon as you see them then this is not the place for you

Cons

Given the very dynamic work environment, the company should look at opportunities to periodically review career progression across all levels
