Phenomenal Company to Work For

Pros

I worked at Dataminr for almost three years and it was phenomenal. Great culture, strong development plans, great process in place, and great people! Communication between departments was extremely strong. Any time I worked on cross departmental projects there was constant communication and support. Strong sense of community and personal responsibility.

Cons

Overall a great opportunity, communication from upper management down could be a little slow at times but never secretive or surprising.

Mentally draining work with no clear path of advancement

Business Outlook

Pros

My colleagues were some of the most brilliant, funny people I've ever had the pleasure of working with.

Cons

8+ hours per day of observing human misery with no mental health resources whatsoever and a constant push to flood client feeds with junk for the sake of numbers. Only real path for advancement is into management, which doesn't rely on any regional or subject matter expertise whatsoever.
