Pros

The company is growing fast, and it has very smart people.

Cons

Terrible tooling around the company, and not enough appetite to make it better.

As someone told me, Databricks ships a lot of product not because of great internal tools, but despite of it.

Slow promos.

All men team.

Advice to Management

Please incentivize improving developer experience.
