Pros

I got a really strong feeling about Databricks since the beginning of my interview process. The recruiter, recruiting coordinators and all involved in my interview process were extremely communicative and consistent. The process was very intentional and well-rounded. Great benefits and a generous fitness stipend! Now as a FT employee, I can confirm that the teams I get to work with are all very welcoming and engaging. I am extremely pleased with my role and my day to day! It is exciting to see where the future of Databricks takes us!

Cons

It is still a start-up, so with hyper growth comes a lot of changes, which are often for the better. A lot of processes are still in development or in launch phases.

Pros

Great teams made up of smart, motivated people. Databricks is an exciting place to work because it is part of the growing data and AI tools space. The benefits and income are also good overall.

Cons

Databricks no longer feels like a startup. There are now multiple layers of bureaucracy, and leadership can feel territorial rather than collaborative. Over time, it can seem like business growth and internal politics have become stronger drivers than innovation or employee experience. For long-tenured employees, it may become harder to stay excited or feel challenged. Other companies may offer a more energizing environment.
