Considering a new job, what are the hot companies right now?

anonymous·Dec 19, 2019

Hey all,New year, new career considerations! I’m planning to do a round of shopping after 2 years at the same company. What are your recommendations for hot companies to check out right now? My current skill set is an experienced data scientist/data analyst.Some I’ve thought about - Snowflake, Coinbase. Also, any to avoid? I’ve personally heard very bad reviews for Robinhood on diversity & inclusion. Would you agree with this?

Check out Crunchbase to see what companies are getting funding and general news about the tech ecosystem.

Can't speak to diversity at Robinhood but I read a few stories like this and felt a bit unsure about them.Also – we partner with companies that are actively looking to hire more women. Lots of interesting companies in the mix. Here's the list: https://elpha.com/companies

I kinda get a bad vibe just from reading the tweets of Robinhood founders/some current employees. Feeling skeptical as well.

Hi op, I have a good friend who works at Credit Karma. Not sure if it's the 'hottest' companies right now, but based on the tour she gave me inside, it feels like a great company. My friends is female&minority and from what she told me, the diversity&inclusion there is great. She also works in the data analytics domain and she said there's a great opportunity for career growth. So feel free to check it out!

What do you want to do? Depending on what you’re good at different companies might be a good fit.
