Pros

- Transparent culture where the leadership cares for the individuals along with the development/growth opportunity for each - Extremely talented and brilliant people - you're going to stay inspired and motivated by having such peers! - Promising growth of the company

Cons

- (Not necessarily a personal con - more of an observation) Seems like WLB is inconsistent where it's more heavily emphasized in one department than the other(s) - Rapidly growing and expanding! So employees may have to adapt to such environment and manage through some hyper-growth pains

Pros

Great teams made up of smart, motivated people. Databricks is an exciting place to work because it is part of the growing data and AI tools space. The benefits and income are also good overall.

Cons

Databricks no longer feels like a startup. There are now multiple layers of bureaucracy, and leadership can feel territorial rather than collaborative. Over time, it can seem like business growth and internal politics have become stronger drivers than innovation or employee experience. For long-tenured employees, it may become harder to stay excited or feel challenged. Other companies may offer a more energizing environment.
