Pluspunten

-remote culture. -Unlimited PTO. -professional and personal development stipend yearly

Minpunten

-low pay in comparison to the market (received a LOW raise after one year and from then it was a sign for me to look elsewhere, they do not appreciate CSMs enough) -change in upper management leading to SEVERE micromanagement. (Which has severely hurt the CS team overall within the last year) -lack of diversity (during our all hands meeting, I can count on one hand how “diverse” the company is) -what makes things so terrible here is when there is a new hire in upper management & instead of them getting to know the team around OUR schedules, they expect CSMs to work around theirs. How many ice breakers and get to know me games are we going to complete (just to get to know you!? We already know each other) while we have other important things to do like replying to emails, meeting with customers, etc. if you show any indication that you’re not a fan of this, you will see repercussions. Even if you have a full book of meetings all day, you will be subjected to a pointless pod meeting where you’re spending time playing ice breaker games with your team. As several others have stated, they are big fans of PiPs and no matter what you are set to fail. Things took a drastic turn for Drata in 2023 and NOT for the best. It’s really sad because at one point, despite the workload, it was a great place to work. In 2024 I would be weary of joining this company, especially if joining the CSM team. The team works hard but due to new management.. they’re basically set you up to fail. If given an offer I wouldn’t accept unless the max salary was offered.. and even then.. I would continue interviewing with better companies. Reach out to former employees and listen to these reviews.

Pluspunten

Drata’s remote first culture attracts many talented engineers across the globe. It’s amazing to be able to work with people from almost every continent and feel like you are all in the same virtual room. There are lots of opportunities to mentor and learn especially given the unique product requirements and timing around the rise of AI.

Minpunten

Being part of a startup is always chaotic and challenging. Some people thrive while others struggle to keep up. That’s the name of the game.

Pluspunten

Smart, hardworking people who genuinely care about doing good work. Meaningful product with strong early-market relevance. Opportunities for growth and scope if you’re willing to take on responsibility. Historically competitive benefits and flexibility (though this has changed recently)

Minpunten

Increasing disconnect between leadership decisions and on-the-ground reality. Rapid layering of senior “enterprise-grade” leaders before the org, processes, and product are fully ready for that level of structure. Frequent policy and benefit changes that feel like clawbacks rather than evolution, which has created uncertainty and trust erosion. Inconsistent messaging around flexibility and location, including pressure to relocate or commute despite prior expectations. A growing sense that optics and control are being prioritized over execution and outcomes
