Pros

Interesting work Distributed employees Super helpful and friendly Fast paced

Cons

While this is a mature startup, it's still a startup. With that there are some growing pains, especially in infrastructure. Benefits are good, but not great compared to other leading tech firms.

- Modern software stack: C++, go, python (tests) - Engineers write unit and integration tests. Solid infrastructure for build and test. Code review culture - SingleStore solves interesting and challenging problems in the space of distributed systems and cloud native design. - Great small-medium sized company and growing. - Everyone is working towards the same goal of building the best unified database. - The office in Raleigh is a fantastic location with parking across the street. Walking distance from restaurants, bars, and the morgan street food hall. Also near several other startup spaces like Raleigh Founded. - Contribute from anywhere policy. Supportive of full-time in office, remote, and hybrid work from home.

Cons

Growing quickly and will need to scale out administrative teams like IT to handle the load.

Pros

Product - I had the opportunity to work with SingleStore (previously known as MemSQL) both as a Customer (Sys Admin) and an Employee. The SingleStore DB is modern, constantly improving, easy to work with and manage. Truly the Database of Now. People - Most of the people I've had the pleasure to work with so far were delightful and pleasant (best of what society has to offer). Benefits - Pay is competitive, unlimited vacation, bonus pay if you work holidays.

Cons

Work/Life balance - Some of the more senior team members seem to be overworked or are working late hours to handle customer related outages/issues. Management is hiring more people to cover different shifts in order to address this issue. New Hire Training - The training materials for new hires seem to be some what outdated and not kept up. You are expected to do a lot of self-learning and ask questions. This isn't completely unreasonable since the role itself involves a lot of researching and self learning.
