Databook Reviews

Benefits can be better and clearer

Where to begin? Let's start with senior leadership that: -burns cash like it's going out of style (luxurious company trips to Tahoe with accommodations at the Ritz, chartered cruises, and extravagant dinners despite public knowledge that the economy was already in retraction and the worst is yet to come) -grows teams not because the business requires it, but because senior leaders have a skewed perception that bigger cost centers equal career growth...I have never encountered leaders as self-serving as those at Databook -invests absurd amounts of money in R&D for a non-existent product that the market neither wants or needs (it is abundantly clear that Databook doesn't actually understand sellers and are more interested in cramming their perspective down the throats of their users) -reinforces a toxic culture of harassment, micromanagement, and in-fighting despite a multitude of documented complaints and high-profile departures -opts for 25% staff reductions to make up for their poor decisions (that, of course, doesn't touch the CEO's in-crowd) The list goes on. Steer clear if you value your career. Working for Databook means working for leadership that doesn't value your growth or safety; instead prioritizing their own extravagant tastes and careers.
