Pros

I have interviewed at a boat load of companies, but Datadog gave the best experience I've ever had. My Recruiter was in constant and consistent communication with me; keeping me updated on where in the process they were and what the potential next steps were. All my interviewers were incredibly kind and answered all my questions to the fullest extent. Now, having been hired, I am consistently impressed with the culture. Every person I've encountered is incredibly kind and willing to help - even if it's not in their job description. I'm additionally impressed at the focus on diversity, especially the focus on finding diverse candidates to bring into the company. Definitely a company that is walking-the-walk, and not just talking.

Cons

Personally, I'd like a 401k match, but with options in the company (and the other benefits and opportunities), it is not any sort of dealbreaker.
