Pros

EDB was the best in the industry, caring for the customers and was the best at what they did. I was proud to work there and proud of the service we provided for the customers.

Cons

Started great but was bought by financial investment firm and all went downhill. They fired all those who cared about the customer. Streamlined employees by cutting to the bare minimum to run the company and let customers suffer for it. The product roadmaps and innovation were stalled and all with experience were let go for those who would do the job for the cheapest. Luckily I left on my own terms before they started the cuts.

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.
