NuoDB reviews

* Management is very smart, sane, and transparent. Execs sit in the desk farm with everyone else. * Highly skilled engineering team doing amazing work on the product. * Fiscally responsible (i.e., moving out of downtown to save money; nice, but not lavish, parties and gifts). * Well stocked kitchen and you can request other items. * An enormous business opportunity. * Friendly culture - low finger-pointing, blaming, red-tape. Very much a "get-it-done" place. * Top-end Mac laptops and whatever other hardware you need. * Good work/life balance with flexible WFH arrangements. * Nice mix of on- and off-site social opportunities.

I've been with NuoDB for a number of years now: the focus of the company has improved markedly. For a while we were chasing any dollar we could find, which led to some schizophrenic (and not productive) requirements and unfair burdens on the dev team. In the last 12-18 months that has (mostly) stopped and we've identified a reasonable target market and taken the time to stabilize the product. * Fantastic, smart people * Challenging and exciting technology * Great environment: open, collaborative, transparent mgmt team * Flexible: work from home is fine, good PTO * Good work/life balance: taking vacation is encouraged, family responsibilities are taken seriously. I've worked many places, even bigger companies, with much worse attitudes. * Move to Alewife... much more convenient (and less expensive)
