Pros

Opportunity to work with industry-leading experts in the open-source space. The company is growing rapidly, offering plenty of room for career advancement and technical skill-building. Truly embraces a remote-work mindset with a diverse, global team. Leadership generally respects personal time, and the "Postgres Pulse" culture keeps things engaging.

Cons

Working across many time zones can make scheduling meetings a challenge. Sometimes it feels like there is a heavy reliance on legacy systems that need modernizing. Rapid growth can lead to shifting priorities and occasional "growing pains" in internal processes. Communication between departments could be more streamlined.

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.
