Pros

* Databricks products are very good and the adoption is growing. Working with the popular product increase chances of career growth. * oppportunity to work variety of customers

Cons

Sales account executives are given insane targets and they do everything desperately to destroy your work life balance. Leadership is not doing much to improve the situation rather bringing in crappy processes to increase the amount of workload. It results in bad vibes and bad relationships between colleagues where nobody really cares. It is getting worse over time.

Pros

- great people - amazing product that sells itself once people get their hands on it - innovative company - decent ote and benefits

Cons

- comp plan this year for hunters is not aligned with company strategy of focusing on larger, multi-year commits. it incentivizes quantity of deals vs. quality of deals, and payouts on commit $$$ are peanuts.
