Vantaggi

CockroachDB is a great product with a lot of market potential and good brand awareness.

Svantaggi

If you want opportunities for professional growth and work/ life balance look elsewhere. In the last year, the company has made a shift away from employee well being and growth. There has also been a big shift away from DEI and bro culture has taken over, so if you're looking for a diverse, inclusive environment, this is not the place for you. Remote work is no longer valued, and the company has shifted its strategy back to being office first (with badge access being tracked). Poor leadership with a lot of management hires based on previous working relationships and not on qualifications, limiting internal promotion opportunities. The company laid off 15% of its workforce (under the guise of money savings) while simultaneously hiring aggressively. Attrition and additional layoffs should be anticipated.

Vantaggi

-incredibly smart, kind, approachable employees -product is in a space that is more and more interesting with the rise of AI -company genuinely cares to be AI Native and each department has objectives associated with that goal- keeps employee skillsets relevant and keeps employees learning and growing -free in office lunches which is a small, yet enjoyable daily delight - the people here are genuinely happy, there is really interesting work to be done and the company is there to support you. after having worked at several different tech companies in NYC, I can say this one stands out

Svantaggi

-create more opportunities of connection amongst the broader team, the people here are awesome and sometimes difficult to meet people that aren't on your team or direct cross functional partners

Vantaggi

Good work life balance. Generally friendly people. Solid initial pay, though don't expect any raises. Good benefits.

Svantaggi

Became extremely political after prior leadership transitions. Flatness of the company structure completely dissipated. Management plays favorites. Very Machiavellian now - management will cut employees at a moments notice. Culture has totally shifted, though still some residual positivity from those still left prior to the leadership change. No internal opportunities for growth, no internal pay raises. People will take credit for your work to make themselves look better.
