Pluspunten

Very good product that outperforms competitors in the space.

Minpunten

This sales organization is a sweatshop. Management treats their AE’s like children and is unbelievably out of touch. You will be required to be in office early and leave late. Extremely frowned upon to leave at the normal time. Very frat bro type culture with constant negativity and hate towards anyone who doesn’t fit their ideology of a rep. Accounts and territories have been churned dozens of times and every account has had 5+ reps already draining it. Extremely hard to hit number for 75% of AE’s. You will get absolutely zero work life balance here. Feels almost like an internship. Consistent threats of losing your job by management if you are not performing. Your activity will be tracked and you will be reprimanded if you do not have slack open and respond within minutes. Off the clock harassment from upper management to work on accounts including weekends. STAY AWAY

Pluspunten

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.

Minpunten

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.
