Pros

1. Everyone may work remotely from home.

Cons

1. The priorities for Human Resources are alarmingly imbalanced and discriminatory. The CHRO has openly stated that her goals are tied to diversity targets. 2. The executive team makes arbitrary, destabilizing decisions, resulting in a ridiculous rate of employee turnover. After nearly three years with the new team, long-term employees (3+ years) are nearly extinct.

Thank you for sharing your perspective; we are committed to building an inclusive and transparent culture. We are glad you appreciated the flexibility of our remote work environment. To ensure accuracy, we want to clarify that our attrition rate is consistently lower than the market average, and we have a healthy percentage of long-term employees. We also want to be unequivocally clear: we support authentic transparency and do not incentivize or coerce reviews on Glassdoor or any other platform. Our leadership is deeply committed to diversity, equity, and inclusion, as demonstrated by initiatives like our Employee Resource Groups, EDBiasFree Committee, and more. While we see you’re listed as a former employee, the lines of communication remain open. We encourage you to reach out directly to our People team if you would like to discuss your experience further.

Pros

EDB is totally one of those rare companies where the mission and the people align perfectly. We’re at the forefront of enterprise Postgres and AI and that’s not just marketing speak. It’s the reality of our work every single day. The team is incredibly talented, collaborative, and generous with their knowledge. Whether you’re working across engineering, product, or customer-facing roles, you’ll find people who are deeply invested in both the technology and each other’s success. Leadership has a clear, compelling vision for where EDB is headed, especialy around sovereign data and AI; they communicate this with conviction. It’s empowering to work somewhere where you can see the roadmap and understand how your contributions fit into the big picture. Career growth is real here. EDB lives its core value of “Grow and Evolve”. I’ve experienced it firsthand, and I’ve watched colleagues step into bigger roles as the company continues to scale.

Cons

EDB moves fast, which is mostly a feature, not a bug. If you thrive in a high-energy environment and enjoy wearing multiple hats, you’ll love it. Those who prefer a slower, more structured pace may find the workload demanding at times.
