Pros

Its was great till the time of Ed. 20+ PTO Welness Friday every month Work from home since Covid Annual Bonus

Cons

The compnay is going for IPO and they moved Ed ex CEO. New CEO did a massive layoff in Sep 23. No respect for experienced employees. Very badly handled the layoff and termination contracts. The 4+ rating was older from Ed time. Now it is not more then 1 star company. Some news hires just trying to get CEO attention and when they failed, they just dump all it to older employees and also helped the new 1-2 year old management in kicking off the company historical resources. Not a good place to work anymore. Not a good company to buy in IPO.

Pros

- Access to several great sales tools and platforms - Decent pay - EDB is well respected in the Postgres community - Working to innovate quickly

Cons

- Most of the leadership lacks technical data expertise which creates friction in the sales motions and positioning. - Currently a small total addressable market. EDB does not compete well with cloud competitors and primarily is geared towards on-prem Postgres in a market that continues to migrate to the cloud. - High turnover across the sales org. - Long, difficult sales motion accompanied by expectations for quick wins.
