      Pros

      Good Solutions for PostgreSQL but PostgreSQL on its own is getting better ands better plus competition from Big 3 cloud providers

      Cons

      Management and sales turn over is high, they average 1 vp every 1.5 years and direct managers of com or ent sales average about 1 year

      Pros

      - wellness Friday - Postgres community-wide acceptance

      Cons

      - APJ Sales leaders don't even know what is a fencing ELA while claiming they have tons of software sales experience - putting blame when they screw up to save their self - provide evidence of misconduct and has been shelf off to save own cronies - forcing sales to pre-load with official email - leadership with customer relationship is ZERO - don't expect any help from management as they have no idea how the business runs and only look into the forecast

      Pros

      Most pros melted away in '23. WFH flexibility, mostly nice people and the famous Wellness Fridays are pretty much it.

      Cons

      The company lost its identity over the past year. Major layoff in '23, high staff attrition in '24, 90% retooled XLT in last six months and a major drift from the open source mission - has led new mgt to hang their collective hats on the next / current Big Thing (AI). None of my clients want to pay for EPAS AI toolset that they can develop for minimal cost or free - nor were they consulted. The new product rollout (still in beta, TBH) and pricing makes our solutions less competitive than last year. The CEO & CRO expect the new sales rep hires (from Oracle no less) to successfully sell 'open source' strategies to our clients? Really? We should be pushing C360 but no one wants to listen to a different long term sales approach. Churn risk is rising in this company and I don't see a path to being acquired, much less an IPO.
