Pros

- Good work life balance as long as you speak up about your needs. - Great executive leadership and decision making. - Work with cutting edge technology (AI/ML/DE) - Breadth of experience across many different industry domains - Meaningful long lasting relationships with Bricksters and Customers. - Autonomy to get your work done, and great culture. - Competitive compensation.

Cons

- Hiring process can sometimes be convoluted since different managers for the same role (e.g. RSA) have different expectations for what they are looking for. I think it would make more sense to standardize on roles and hiring criteria between Teams. -

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.
