Pros
MemSQL set out some years ago to build "the next great database," and it's happening. The product is rock-solid, and remaining gaps in the (very extensive) value proposition are getting closed fast. The company is fast-growing, well-run, and successful, even with many people not having heard of us. Also, the company has responded well to the COVID-19 crisis, the "new normal" of working from home, and everything related to that - even recent social issues. As MemSQL gets better-known, the sky's the limit.
Cons
It's an unusual management structure, with co-CEOs, no CMO, and a lot of new hires, most especially in Sales. So there are typical startup growing pains, and a sense of urgency that is both exhilarating and sometimes head-spinning.
