How's Databricks as a company to work with (Work culture, career & company growth, compensation etc)?

Company growth will be huge. Compensation is just as good or better than alternatives. Career is fast or slow depending on who you ask, but I think it’s clear how to get the positions you want. Culture: I’m working with the smartest folks I’ve worked with. There’s quite a bit of growth lately combined with remote work which has caused a decrease in connectedness. The company is transparent as far as I can tell. Some folks are over worked, but this is becoming less frequent the more we scale.

Customers enjoy meeting with us and respect what we have to say, even if it is nearly impossible to keep up with all the tech. Speaking of which — tons of learning opportunities across tech domains (data engineering, machine learning, BI, Cloud, and automation), industries, and company strategy (users, use cases, initiatives, org structure).

Finally, the valuation just keeps going up.

My two cents here. I was thinking about going to this place or snowflake. Concerned that a-lot of the other hyperscalers will just create some of these solutions in house. Whatever happened to cloudera?

Am I crazy to take a pay cut to “chase my dream”?

Right now in talks for a sustainability director role that would be closer to $160k base / $20k bonus. (More in comments)

What kind of security clearance do attorney positions with domestic agencies require? I’ve been disincentivized from seeking positions with the federal government because I’m not confident about my ability to obtain a TS clearance (high short term and medium term debt, bad credit, messy bank statements, expunged misdemeanors). But I’m not trying to stay in big law if I could land federal government at half the salary. Is it worth pursuing before cleaning up my risk factors?
