Pluspunten

1. Quickly growing company with a great product. 2. Fair compensation and benefits

Minpunten

1. Lack of a proper engineering career path - There are not many engineering levels which means that there are Senior Software Engineers with a difference of 10+ years of experience, all with the same title. Getting promoted to a Staff Engineering level can be extremely difficult as compared to other companies. 2. Not remote-friendly - While they do hire for remote roles much of the engineering teams are office based and it can be difficult to integrate as a remote engineer. 3. Lots of junior engineers - The ratio of junior to more senior engineers is far greater than in many other places where I have worked. I have to do a bit more hand-holding at Datadog.

Great product, in-person office atmosphere is very good, great learning opportunity for someone newly stepping into first sales role from previous SDR position

Minpunten

Ran through sales account patches, below average base pay for role vs. rest of industry, can be a bit of a pressure cooker at times, high turnover
