Pros
New leadership and new, exciting opportunities for the company means endless ways to make an impact on the direction of the org. The newly appointed CEO is the real deal - super sharp vision, thoughtful and very intentional direction for product and larger company. Impressive new energy to executive leadership across marketing and product are guiding the team towards new growth to set up EDB's future success. Great time to contribute to a notable vision that will set EDB apart. Wellness Fridays are a huge win, too!
Cons
Big goals for the company means moving fast and staying flexible, which may not be for everyone - though for most, it's an energetic environment to thrive and make real, tangible impact.

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.
