Best company I've ever worked in.
Best company I've ever worked in.
- The company really cares about people, whether they are working for it or even mankind (charity actions, for instance).
- It feels like they work hard for every employee's happiness, which is great.
- Great benefits (health, sport, culture, kindergarten, etc.).
- Awesome spirit and people. Employees are proud to work for Datadog.
- As a software engineer, you work for a product you use daily, which is very rewarding.
- Very challenging engineering problematics.
- I get to work with some of the very best engineers I've met.
- There is a real effort to mentor every employee, and everyone makes progress and evolves.
On-call shifts, they are a must-have but remain a pain.
Keep the same spirit: pragmatism, employee-centric, delivering the best product possible.
