      The PTSD is real

      Pros

      Good benefits, but started disappearing without warning

      Cons

      The PTSD from this place is real. Leadership is completely incompetent; I'm talking total buffoons who can barely string a sentence together. HR leaders are the worst of them all - huge bloated salaries adding little to no value. You'll live in constant fear of being made redundant. You'll work on something for months only to have it scrapped because they can't align on a strategy. It's a company who values loyalty over competence and brotherhood over getting any real work done. If you're remotely good at your job, they will drain your soul and kick you to the curb.

      Thank you for sharing your feedback. It's regrettable that you left Dataminr with that impression. We prioritize the well-being and dignity of our colleagues and place a great deal of value on the employee experience. We pride ourselves on not only attracting but retaining a workplace community that contributes to the success of the business, enabled by a vibrant, inclusive culture where psychological safety is prioritized and innovation is rewarded. It's important to us that employees feel safe and supported in their work and we have many resources in place to ensure this happens. While I empathize with your sentiment, your characterization of our leadership and People Team is inaccurate and unfounded. Strong and effective management is crucial to our success and to the well-being of our employees, and it is concerning that we did not meet your expectations in this important area. Would you be willing to share the details of your experience with us at hr@dataminr.com? We are dedicated to providing effective management and a supportive work environment for all employees.

      Incredible Product and Mission, Great People

      Business Outlook

      Pros

      - This has been the best job of my career in terms of being presented with growth opportunities. Engineering Leadership is thoughtful in cultivating a fair, healthy environment that respects work-life balance. - The people I work with day-to-day are intelligent and eager to grow but also friendly and collaborative. I genuinely enjoy each day because that attitude is prevalent at my level and the management levels above me. - The mission and product are incredibly exciting. It's rewarding to hear about real examples of our work saving lives, and the vision we're working towards is compelling. I truly believe this is a generational product that we will look back on as essential and groundbreaking in years to come. - Engineering has been fully remote the entire time I have worked here. It has been incredible for my mental health, and I am grateful we never forced a return to the office. - Leadership has a long-term outlook and has proved that they take action based on feedback, as evidenced by their increased transparency over the last couple of years.

      Cons

      - There was a RIF last year. That was a stressful period as we tried to find the right operating model to support our next stage of growth sustainably in the new economic and fundraising environment. Teams were understaffed and had too many projects going on simultaneously. However, I think the company has recognized it was unsustainable, and we've taken steps to improve our focus and workloads across the organization.
