Dataminr reviews

Management has no vision. There's no transparency in the company, from promotion to even the product. There is also a history of questionable treatment towards staff coming from minority backgrounds.

Fake Executives and managers are two-faced. The company has a diplomatic culture where everyone repeats the same AI-centric language, ends up sounding like they’re all robots. No one in management can give you answers without beating around the bush and using “Dataminr official” language. Executives are entirely out of touch what makes the company great (the DE org). With recent changes, responsibilities have been handed off to contractors, worsening the product quality. Domain experts are in their way out. The job can be mentally taxing, but you kind of know that when signing up. Micromanaging is real here, and employees are afraid to make a simple mistake without being remanded for it. But when managers make the same mistake, it goes unnoticed. Management goes by the buddy system. If someone is personal friends with a manager, they’ll get special treatment over others. No room for advancement unless you’re buddies with the people making those choices. Rumors are constantly swirling, making everyone on edge about restructuring, cuts, and layoffs. You can guarantee you’re being talked about behind your back. Good luck getting a job after you’re laid off due to the uniqueness of the company and product.
