Pros

Still sharply growing company, lots of product needs in the market. Very good global culture and global leadership.

Cons

Small regions with few employees have their own unique culture, all employees are controlled by high level sales manager. Sales oriented culture does not respect an engineer voice. Salary does not competitive anymore compare to the other data platform vendors.

Pros

Supportive people, a strong culture, and meaningful flexibility are the biggest positives. I've had the chance to work with thoughtful colleagues who care about doing good work and helping each other succeed. There are solid opportunities to learn, build relationships across teams, and contribute in a way that feels impactful.

Cons

Workloads can be heavy during busy periods, and priorities can sometimes shift quickly (which is expected in growing companies)

Pros

Remote work and decent pay

Cons

Really depends on the team, however middle management needs to be addressed. Toxic culture that truly depends on who your manager is. Silent layoffs are made to seem "Performance-based", then job is re-posted at a reduced range. Proceed with caution and understand that HR is not your friend.
