Avantages
- Extremely talented, grounded, and motivated coworkers - Competent and open minded upper management - Business plan is ambitious and expansive I think Databricks is one of the best places to work as engineer. The engineers here are uniformly competent, hard working, and compassionate, and the cofounders who lead eng set a fantastic example. I'm happy to be a brickster!
Inconvénients
- We're still a young company and going through some growing pains, so production fires are a bit more common than I'd like - It tends to be a hardworking bunch (by choice, not dictum), so not ideal if you're looking for a 9-5 gig - Making enterprise software can be a pain in the butt (hands-on treatment for large customers, having to be very careful about backwards compatibility)
