Pros

The vision and openness is superb. The company is well-positioned to lead the world into a new era of data and AI enabled products and services all around us. The people here are the most talented in the world, but at the same time ready and willing to help and engage. They work hard to take care of employees and build a solid cultural foundation.

Cons

Notes for prospective applicants: If you want to come here, you better be ready to work hard and contribute the best work of your career. You need to be ready to have your proposals questioned and not simply taken at face value or based on some authority. Be ready to need your team and devote effort to functioning well as part of a larger whole. If any of these are cons for you, then Databricks would not be a good fit for you.

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.
