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.

I’m being recruited back to a bank I left 6 months ago. Was contacted by a recruiter this week because I had indicated in my exit interview that I would consider a return to the firm in the future.

Would it be wrong to ask for an additional $25k to go back?

Anyone here familiar with the hiring process of KPMG consulting in Van? Had a partner interview on Nov 21, thought the feedback was positive but haven't heard back yet (no rejection/offer). Is it something normal or the interview just didn't go as well as I thought?

It's an experienced hire for an SC role. I saw the posting is still open atm, and my guess is that the recruiting team is comparing candidates since competition is higher due to recent layoffs.

Thanks in advance!

Hi Fishes,
I had given interview for network security architect position in Feb last week. And as per recruiter, I got selected for that role. I have been asked to share the documents on March 1st.

Could it be because of expected salary ?
