Pros

Love the business, great leadership and product,

Cons

Pay your AE's in line with the market. Currently paid circa 50% less than most other AE's. Quota's shooting up with growth but pay not reflecting that. Loyalty doesn't pay at this company.

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.
