-Micromanagement to the highest level
-Prospect accounts have been so saturated by Datadog’a pipeline generation approach that potential customers don’t even want to talk with Datadog
-Very aggressive demand generation technique
-If you don’t reach your metrics ( number of calls & emails) during quarter’s end where you’re busy closing you’ll get a message from management saying that your soft KPI’s are unacceptable
-Too many internal mandatory calls which takes away time best served somewhere else
-only a handful of reps close and it’s always the same ones. Meaning great accounts are being allocated to senior reps. Leaving little chance to new reps to close any deals.
-America thinks the “one size fits all” approach is applicable to EU, which is entirely incorrect
