Pros

free food and drink, great benefits

Cons

This job was my life and I constantly went MORE than above and beyond for Datto every single day, loved by the entire office, tons and tons of positive shout-outs and recommendations from even C Level Executives and laid off with literally ZERO notice and ZERO explanation from the HR and Legal department. I would understand letting waste go but this is not the case. The CEO/Founder SWORE nothing would change after they sold and merged, "always standing up for the employees" promising "nothing would change because thats not who Datto is" boy was I wrong, but why pay someone X amount if you can fire them, keep that X and just make the rest of the team pick up the slack, I get it, its business...My director walked me to the HR area and on the walk there was buttering me up, asking me what I was working on that week, how things were going overall just to be walked into a room and let go minutes later, such a snake move. never EVER thought Datto would do this to me and 30+ other people. Really disappointing. I thought I found my forever career :( Good luck and much love to the remaining employees!
