Pros

If you are a highly motivated person, you will be given many opportunities to learn new things on your own.

Cons

EDB does not care about people, and will shed, reorganize, or demote staff without warning. Executives do not believe employees matter in the end. Not really. You're more likely to learn of your new job title through a company-wide blast than to receive a performance review. Before taking a job with EDB, ask these questions: - how long have my potential coworkers been on the job? - how many people are in my dept now? - how many were there a year ago?

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.
