Pros

Great product, strong culture, passionate people who care about pushing the needle forward, high growth, exciting time to be here, great leadership, team environment

Cons

I don't see this as a con, but working at a high growth company comes with challenges. I view those challenges as the opportunity to create or build something as well as develop more efficient processes.

Pros

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.

Cons

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.
