Datadog

Quickly growing company with a great product.

Fair compensation and benefits.

Lack of a proper engineering career path - There are not many engineering levels, which means that there are Senior Software Engineers with a difference of 10+ years of experience, all with the same title. Getting promoted to a Staff Engineering level can be extremely difficult compared to other companies.

Not remote-friendly - While they do hire for remote roles, much of the engineering teams are office-based, and it can be difficult to integrate as a remote engineer.

Lots of junior engineers - The ratio of junior to more senior engineers is far greater than in many other places where I have worked. I have to do a bit more hand-holding at Datadog.
