Pros

One of the best teams I have ever worked with. Some of the brightest, most talented, and modest people I've ever met. The work is super interesting, and what we are doing is very exciting. The company is revolutionizing the data industry. We've hired the best people. And we have a very high chance of succeeding. This might be the best team I've ever worked with.

Cons

We all love what we do, it's s company of workaholics, we work a lot, no-one forces us to do this, but we are all committed to succeeding and we put in the time to make it happen.

Pros

Great teams made up of smart, motivated people. Databricks is an exciting place to work because it is part of the growing data and AI tools space. The benefits and income are also good overall.

Cons

Databricks no longer feels like a startup. There are now multiple layers of bureaucracy, and leadership can feel territorial rather than collaborative. Over time, it can seem like business growth and internal politics have become stronger drivers than innovation or employee experience. For long-tenured employees, it may become harder to stay excited or feel challenged. Other companies may offer a more energizing environment.
