Pros

When we were in the office, we had catered lunches, fun events, and all around positive vibes. Now that we are working from home, Datadog has done a fantastic job of supporting its employees (physically, mentally, and financially) through tough times. People here work hard but are also encouraged to take personal time to avoid burnout (especially with the recent situation), so great work/life balance. Love the people and the culture- it's a great place to work!

Cons

The company is still sorting out ways to handle rapid growth and implement employee feedback, but they have really stepped it up in the past year! The company is improving every day so I don't have much to critique

Pros

Datadog has a strong product, smart coworkers, and a fast paced environment that teaches you a lot quickly. I learned a tremendous amount about observability, technical discovery, outbound prospecting, and how modern engineering organizations operate. The company has also gives reps exposure to large accounts and technical conversations early in their careers.

Cons

The ramp for newer AEs can feel steep, especially in a hgihly competitive outbound environment. Success often depends on timing, territory, pipeline momentum, and consistent coaching. There can also be a significant pressure tied to activity metrics and pipeline generations, which may be difficult for reps still developing confidence and process consistency.
