Vantaggi

The benefits are good. I believe in the product and think there's a good future for the business. There are a lot of people on the solutions team that have diverse backgrounds that give unique perspectives.

Svantaggi

The pay is below market rate and they acknowledged there wouldn't be a cost of living increase, especially with respect to ~8% inflation. The solutions team has been undergoing a reorganization as we move from a startup mentality to a more corporate system. This has been rolled out terribly via multiple different initiatives. Leadership has repeatedly thanked the rank-and-file for their constructive feedback only to ignore our requests (like more support from senior team members or continuing education). The individual contributors have asked for the reasoning behind certain decisions like "how did you set that quota?" and "when should we expect feedback?" I haven't heard answers to those questions yet. The solutions teams is so bad that most peoples' goal is to use it as a stepping stone into another division.

Vantaggi

Datadog has a strong product, smart coworkers, and a fast paced environment that teaches you a lot quickly. I learned a tremendous amount about observability, technical discovery, outbound prospecting, and how modern engineering organizations operate. The company has also gives reps exposure to large accounts and technical conversations early in their careers.

Svantaggi

The ramp for newer AEs can feel steep, especially in a hgihly competitive outbound environment. Success often depends on timing, territory, pipeline momentum, and consistent coaching. There can also be a significant pressure tied to activity metrics and pipeline generations, which may be difficult for reps still developing confidence and process consistency.
