Pros

Datadog is the premier product in the monitoring and observability space. As we are an expensive product you very rarely lose deals based on the products capabilities. The sales culture here is very lively and collaborative where it is very easy to learn from your peers who are seeing success. I came in to this role from being an SDR at another tech company and Datadog has given me the skills to really thrive in a sales career at any company. The benefits are also top notch with full health coverage and $1200 for a fitness reimbursement.

Cons

This is a full sales cycle role where you will be making a lot of cold calls and emails on a daily basis. This isn't for everyone and as they hire a lot of people from SDR type roles you can see some high turnover. If you are up for the challenge you will succeed and make a lot of money.
