Pros
Databricks has some world-leading innovators who are incredibly accessible and approachable. As an employee of Databricks it's taken as read that you are excellent within your field and as such the managers are receptive to your feedback and trust you implicitly, there is absolutely no micro-managing. It's also an exciting place to be - Databricks are taking the market by storm and being along for the ride is truly a once in a career opportunity. Finally, the team are just fantastic people - it's impossible to brush through the office without exchanging hellos and having a laugh with at least 5 colleagues, it probably takes 20 minutes to get from the front door to your desk.
Cons
When you join an early-stage startup you implicitly agree to do whatever it takes in order to get the organisation where it needs to be, often that means going outside your comfort zone, doing things which aren't your job, and working long hours. Databricks isn't an early-stage startup any more - but it sure does act like one. Newer employees are often underwhelmed by the amount of structure and process in place which makes them wonder whether they made the right choice. This is reinforced and perpetuated by some of the longer-serving staff (particularly leadership) who have been there so long that they see nothing wrong. Databricks seriously needs to get a grip and start protecting their staff or people will start leaving.
