Pros

I enjoy working here because the people are friendly, down-to-earth, and collaborative. This is especially important on the sales team, which competes against Oracle without being jerks. Beyond sheer performance of the engine, I think this is one of the reasons why the company continually gains F1000 customers, usually at the expense of one of the incumbents. And yes, the deal sizes are incredible, but without all the big-company-BS. Zac is awesome. The fact that the company already has President's Club shows it values its sales people as much as its engineers, who are also nominated to attend for going above-and-beyond to help our customers. That is incredible.

Cons

Honestly, there are no cons if you care about your work and customers.

Strong engineering team, weak business and executive teams

Pros

Lots of perks and top of market salary Beautiful office in the tech hub of San Francisco with plenty of room Motorized standing desks and access to mac, windows, and linux machines, as many monitors as you want Work life balance is good, but only because there is little demand Great food, snacks, PTO, 401k, health/vision/dental benefits and company outings Colleagues are overall smart and friendly for the most part, we recruit from top engineering schools

Cons

Recruiters are either untruthful or ill informed during interviews, not willing to talk about internal and product issues Amount of equity given out is negligible if you are actually able to figure out how many shares are outstanding, all revenue and valuation numbers are shrouded in secrecy Inexperienced CEO is not inspiring nor a leader, is inaccessible and seldom in office Company mission statement is not compelling Product roadmap is set by CEO and marketing team more so than by customer feedback and market demand At past companies, board member have been active members of the organization and have made themselves available by anyone at the company to help drive success and answer questions. At MemSQL, it seems like there is a new board member being added every few quarters and none have offered any guidance to anyone but the C level team.

Thank you for the review. We value all feedback even when it's tough to hear. As the head of People Ops, I'm always disappointed when an employee expresses displeasure about the organization or about how she or he has been treated at the company. And while we might have different points of view on the issues you raise, I respect your opinion and hope that you'll work with me, my team, or your manager to help improve your experience at the company.

Pros

-Amazing Benefits -Competitive Pay -Great culture -lunch and dinner are provided -team off-site events -Challenging work -Great product -Dog friendly work place -Happy hours bi-weekly -great work-life balance

Cons

-Dinner served at 6:30, so if you are not an engineer you only get lunch. -Sales team is still developing so there is not much structure (Also a pro, personally I love ambiguity and leadership listens to all ideas)
