      Horrible place, stay away at all costs - Customer Success Manager (CSM) Datarails Employee Review

      Pros

      Cool office building, convenient location for commuting

      Cons

      To start, the “product” is just simply horrible. And this is not just my opinion. Customer churn is the biggest issue facing this company because after the customers have a chance to use this product and see how buggy/derivative it is of Microsoft access and Power BI, they cancel their contracts. Leadership does not communicate expectations, goals, or the realistic prospects of this poorly managed company. They lie about how much money they have raised, benefits they provide, and the competitive landscape. Rest assured, any positive reviews left on this site are certainly done by executive leadership. Job security is nonexistent and they turn out employees faster than they hire. For a company of over 200 employees, that has been in business for over 7 years, a projection of 15m in ARR won’t keep they lights on for very long.

      Pros

      Positive work/life balance when I'm off, I am completely off. The remote schedule let me relocate to better my life to a more affordable cost of living area. Everyone in the organization feels like we're working towards something groundbreaking and inspiring. Managers set achievable goals for all their team members.

      Cons

      Leadership can hold things close to the chest which can have a hand in making some employees feel unsure about job security.

      Pros

      Not much to be honest.

      Cons

      A poster had mentioned layoffs below and got roasted by the response and yet, here we are again with layoffs. The C level management ego is only bypassed by their incompetence particularly the CEO and CRO. Neither of them has any touch with reality, they could care less about their people unless you are one of the favorites as others have noted. DR is a if you are liked at the whim of the ceo and/or cro you can do ok, if not, you will be buried. There is no response DR is going to say that is going to be able to contradict that. In fact, you can scroll down and see their response to when layoffs were brought up last time. The hypocrisy and constant change is comical. I get that it's still startup life and the only constant is change... that is to be expected, but the fact that it's always at the expense of good people who in fact have performed just because they aren't one of their people is just an awful way to run a company and their recent results reflect that.

      Thank you for taking the time to share your perspective. We recognize that strong opinions often emerge during periods of change, particularly when business decisions affect individuals directly. At Datarails, decisions related to organizational structure, hiring, and workforce adjustments are driven by evolving business priorities, market realities, and long-term company goals - not by favoritism or personal preference. In a high-growth environment, those decisions can be difficult and are never made lightly. We also recognize that fast-moving companies require leaders and teams alike to adapt continuously, and while change can be uncomfortable, it is often necessary to position the business responsibly for what comes next. That includes making thoughtful adjustments when priorities shift, even when those choices are hard. Feedback regarding leadership, communication, and culture is taken seriously, and we continue working to strengthen clarity, consistency, and the employee experience as the company evolves. While not every individual experience will reflect the same view, many employees continue to build meaningful careers here and contribute significantly to our growth. We appreciate your feedback and wish you success in your next chapter.
