Great company mission and cool AI product. Colleagues all very smart and great to work with.

No major cons. Very dynamic working environment, so sometimes priorities change. But expected for a technology company.

Pros

I’ve worked at Dataminr for over five years, and like any mid-sized tech startup, it has had its share of ups and downs. The company has given me the chance to explore different roles and take on a variety of responsibilities across the organization. Management is very supportive of cross-departmental moves, and it's rare to be turned down if you show both interest and competence. I’ve seen competitors and newer companies emerge, but from my perspective, they don’t match Dataminr’s scope and product offerings. It’s rewarding and reassuring to be at the forefront of this industry. We succeed on our own terms, without needing to imitate others to achieve success.

Cons

The company has high expectations and sometimes shifting performance metrics that can be stressful to understand during review time. Defining success in a role is challenging as impact is defined differently in each department. The daily operational work isn't always recognized as important as the next shiny project. That said, at any company, you should be your biggest champion and highlight the work to anyone listening.

Very Strong Momentum

Pros

The company's recent product launch has spurred a wave of excitement and momentum which is palpable across the entire business. As a long time employee at the company, attending industry conferences this summer was invigorating - it is clear that the company is leaning into expanding our presence and ramping up go-to-market activity for the end of the year and next year. The product is so helpful to customers, it's great to see more initiatives to increase our exposure in the market. The company has made a lot of personnel changes in the go-to-market organization this year, and it's nice to see everything coalesce and to see such a positive impact in a relatively short period of time. I've been very impressed with the new leaders across the go-to-market organization.

Cons

The layoffs in 2023 were a challenging time, and it was sad to see good people leave the company.

Thank you for sharing your positive employee experience at Dataminr. We are thrilled with our life-saving product and enormous market momentum. The decision to lay off teammates in 2023 was a very difficult one and not made lightly. Organizational strength, visionary executive leadership, and standout employees have us well-positioned for success, and we look toward the future with a great deal of excitement.
