Pros

Great company to work for, perks and terms, culture, colleagues, easy to sell products, looks great on your CV.

Cons

Junior entry level department mentality- no recognition for employees, low morale, dismissive management, unreasonable KPIs. No career path or plan for Customer Success. If you are interviewing for this job make sure you are ok with the career path, promotions, internal mobility opportunities and realistic timeline.

Pros

Stock options and gym reimbursement

Cons

Datadog is a very toxic place especially if you’re in a non-tech role where you are deprioritized and uncared for. Talent acquisition has terrible, selfish leaders who only care about themselves and pushing their teams past their limits. Your colleagues will backstab you again and again to gain preferential treatment. The leaders encourage this type of behavior and get excited and make jokes about it. Additionally,I It is an environment riddled with sexism and racism — is it not 2026? NYC at that? The lack of resources and support compared to engineering is astounding. I would never recommend this place to anyone. Many of the good reviews are fake or are by people who perpetuate the toxic culture. The only good thing is the stock options. Stay far away from this place!
