Pluspunten

Some colleagues and peers are great to work with.

Minpunten

If you're looking to grow, be challenged, or contribute strategically in marketing, this is not the place for you! No Room for Creativity or Growth: Opportunities to think strategically or contribute creatively are limited. You’re expected to follow instructions, not shape direction. Lack of Recognition: Talented individuals often go unnoticed. Leadership rarely acknowledges contributions, which can be demoralising over time. Toxic Management Culture: Many managers struggle with receiving feedback and create a culture where saying 'no' is seen as disloyalty. Exploring internal roles is discouraged, leading to career stagnation. Forced Exits and Silent Layoffs: I've personally seen several colleagues pushed out under vague circumstances. There is a pattern of quiet exits and unspoken pressure. Misleading Reviews: Many of the overly positive reviews here don’t reflect reality. Only consider joining if you’re content clocking in, doing exactly what you’re told, and not being challenged or given space to grow. Otherwise, this environment could negatively impact your career trajectory.

Minpunten

Datadog is a very toxic place especially if you’re in a non-tech role where you are deprioritized and uncared for. Talent acquisition has terrible, selfish leaders who only care about themselves and pushing their teams past their limits. Your colleagues will backstab you again and again to gain preferential treatment. The leaders encourage this type of behavior and get excited and make jokes about it. Additionally,I It is an environment riddled with sexism and racism — is it not 2026? NYC at that? The lack of resources and support compared to engineering is astounding. I would never recommend this place to anyone. Many of the good reviews are fake or are by people who perpetuate the toxic culture. The only good thing is the stock options. Stay far away from this place!
