What is the salary like at Datadog?

Good benefits, good pay and generally nice people

Very money grubbing with customers. Very proud of the fact that after customer's AWS bill the Datadog bill is 2nd biggest spend for companies.

- product is best in class - great place to develop as an early career seller - office and benefits are great

- very political high school esk culture - base pay is low - promotion path to from COMM to MM is slow and highly politically driven - accounts are ran through and majority are terrible because DD hires 100s of sellers at low pay to cover as many accounts at the same time as possible

A lot of pros such as benefits, salary and culture

nothing as of yet. Maybe future prospects

- Personal life balance is very good - Great environment to Work - Interesting technology

- The salary is a little bit lower than the avg in the industry

good culture ,good pay,not bad

not good for intern,especally for someone not in specific major

great culture, good pay and brilliant training

not much to say for this

The technical solutions team members are all helpful and willing to answer any your questions. The culture at Datadog was really great and inviting and the high energy and pace of working on top tier and cutting edge technologies. The product itself is amazing and the tools used to do your job are there such as numerous KB's, office hour type daily meetings for help with your customer ticket issues and weekly one on one with your direct manager. Great place to learn the support engineering model and expand your skills without any prior experience. Numerous perks and incentives (appears as eye candy to a engineer joining that industry) such as great full lunch meals and snacks and drinks of various kinds and paid health benefits and unlimited time off and fitness reimbursement are all great for making your time at the office enjoyable. Communication within the company is frank and frequent and informative which made you feel inclusive. Manager does have a genuine interest in your career but depends on how well your do your best each month - see cons.

Perks are great to make you feel that you are appreciated but keep on eye on how your manager and management perceive your work ethic if you do not meet your monthly goals. Company spends a lot on perks including full healthcare and unlimited timeoff. These perks may affect what your actualy market value salary could be working in a similar role with anther company competitor or not. Management focused too much on metrics and running analytics against your instead of actually investing in you and making your voice heard. Despite having numerous townhalls and open discussion sessions, workers were not listened to or given push back that things will eventually change if given enough time. Don't hold the metrics too high, they do not show the entire story of working as a support engineer. Allow for more time and don't try to reach a MTTR (mean tie to resolution) time when its not achievable or even feasible. Give enough time for onboarding and better plan embed and scheduled time off for leave of absence so that the manager you end up keeps going from one person to another in matter of months Promote people as they grow and allow them to take the risk in a new position and leave room for future promotions and positions as the company and team grows. Not all Support engineers want to be a developer. Foster a team that allows mobility and apply their strengths to benefit the whole team globally rather than have their next great idea dwindle. Restructure the Hack/Dev days to allow more time for learning and gaining insight to the Datadog product and allow time for industry certifications Hire more engineers that can help with the load when peak times come and adjust the metrics requirements accordingly when these peask and valley of voume support tickets come and go.
