Pros

I would say the pay was moderate.

Cons

My supervisor was dishonest, the company culture was problematic, and the sales tools were outdated. From day one, my supervisor made it clear that he was only interested in one thing: closing deals. He didn't care how we did it, as long as we hit our targets. This led to a lot of unethical behavior from the sales team, such as pressuring customers to buy products they didn't need and making false promises abut the product's capabilities. The company culture was also very toxic. There was a lot of backstabbing and competition among the sales team, and management was constantly putting pressure on us to perform. I felt like I was always being watched and judged, and it made it very difficult to focus on my work.

Pros

Where do I start? MemSQL has been on my radar since version one. 4 years later, I joined their team and it was one of the best (if not THE best) decision I have ever made. For starters, I'm working with the brightest team I have ever worked with (hands down) and the whole enterprise DB space is incredibly fascinating. This creates a tremendous growth and learning curve (do your homework) if you decide to take full advantage of the opportunity to be on the team. While challenging and very much a startup, we have an exceptional leadership team (zero politics) who do a great job at keeping the communication lines open and working in parallel with the employees. At the end of the day, being on the MemSQL team gives me the sense of purpose in my work which extends beyond just the product or mission. It's the ability to have impact, grow and learn next to my colleagues, absolutely disrupt the DB market, and help this company elevate to it's next level of success.

Cons

We're a startup, certain areas are still learning opportunities for us. The challenges we've encountered aren't unique to any other startup.

Pros

I've been able to continue my professional growth through promotions and by taking on more responsibility while helping to grow the team. The company is mostly made up of young, hungry professionals who know how to work hard, but also maintain a relaxed collaborative atmosphere.

Cons

As a small, fast growing company we have growing pains like many others. Still adding things like HR and support functions to help with additional growth.
