Pros

Product is great and very competitive in busy market.

Kontras

Be prepared to say goodbye to your home life. To manage the metrics daily expected of you, you will have to work minimum 14 hours a day. I have never seen such a poorly managed and poorly run business in my life. This explains the huge churn in staff. I used to work in a call centre with diallers and not even that was half as bad as this. You are micromanaged to a point I have never seen before. There is a minimum of 3 team meetings per day which make no sense. You have to call out your predicted forecasts on calls with the entire sales division? Its absolutely comical. So they can praise the 3 people that over perform and then punish the entire region that aren't. Racist comments were made everyday. Please be aware. The team is full of gossips. They pay the worst salaries in the industry, but expect the most. You get around 70 accounts (in total) in a minuscule region and expected to hit your number. Half of these accounts are duplicates and in the wrong country. Overall really dissatisfied in this horror show.

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.

Kontras

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.
