Pros

Great people. Excellent new business opportunities and AI product direction. New leadership are experienced and deeply connected in silicon valley. Engineers are pushed to produce but given autonomy and interesting work.

Cons

Management moves very rapid with good results but also some mistakes. Top leaders most certainly know what they are about but for employees the direction is sometimes a surprise because not adequately written and communicated. It is hard for us on the team to feel energy and enthusiasm if not better included.

Pros

- Dgraph has a great product. It is the #1 open-source GraphDB on GitHub, and many fortune 500 companies use it. I speak with prospects and customers from time to time, and it's rare to work for a company that your customers thank you for building such a fantastic product. - Dgraph has a very talented team. It has a tight culture where everyone deeply believes in the mission. No matter which team you reach out, they're all in such high caliber and have tons of knowledge that you can learn from. - Dgraph gave me a lot of opportunities that I never had before in my previous role. Because I joined an early-stage startup, you have opportunities to take on projects that directly impact the growth of the business. It's a very cool experience when you see the projects/initiatives you implemented to make an impact.

Cons

Dgraph is built with a distributed team. We have team members all over the globe. It can be a challenge to coordinate and work with time from different timezones.
