I have worked at Datadog for more than 4 years, both as an individual contributor and as a manager. For a long time it was an amazing place to work at. Not so much anymore. - Yet another tech company that cares more about revenue growth than good long-term business decisions or employees. - Company is no longer focused on recognizing and rewarding high performance, or growing employees. - Company has been so successful that I suspect leadership doesn't know where to go next, and so it's focusing on easier objectives like cutting costs. - Not serious about diversity goals. - PTO is discouraged, unlimited in name only.
