Pros

Late stage startup with lots of potential! Databricks is the only company that fills the void of enabling companies to turn data into quantifiable business value. The culture is great and there's a lot of employee efficacy. Perks are fantastic and it's great knowing you are working on fascinating use cases across multiple verticals.

Cons

As the case of most startups in a highly technical space, it's a pretty steep learning curve. Onboarding is never easy especially given the velocity at which the business is growing and need for new hires to start working with customers immediately.

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.
