Pros

Great product Great engineering talent Great customer logos Decent benefits

Kontras

Toxic executive management (Google the CEO to know what you're getting into) Very high turnover (see number one) Changing product direction. The focus of the product has changed many times over the recent past. Maybe this isn't a bad thing, but frequent change is telling. Strategic hires and promotions are mostly internal from the managements circle (with some exceptions) New logo velocity is diminishing (we have good logos, but ask yourself how many of them were acquired in the last year or two) Layoffs. How many successful startups at this stage have had significant layoffs?

We appreciate hearing from our current employees, and encourage honest feedback as it helps us learn how we can be better. We do have a zero tolerance policy when it comes to a "toxic" or hostile work environment, so please contact your Human Resources business partner to discuss this issue further. Your conversation will be kept private and confidential. We have no record of anything even close to what you mention about the work environment from anyone to date. This handicaps us from making your valuable feedback actionable - something we would like to do with urgency. Regarding the previous history for any of our employees, we do a very thorough background check to ensure that everyone who joins SingleStore is aligned with our corporate values and virtues and meets the highest level of integrity-again, we have a ZERO tolerance policy here. This past September we had to say goodbye to some of our colleagues to align with our future growth plans in a fast changing landscape - no different from what a vast majority of companies did. This was after we had taken a “no layoff for 90 days” pledge at the start of the pandemic to ensure the emotional wellbeing of our colleagues. Since then, we have welcomed 37 new colleagues and our plan for this year is to add more than 100 new employees, with a fair share of those in your Engineering department. We are a growing company with no plans for layoffs. We at HR are here for you - pls come speak to us and we will action your feedback immediately.

I had the opportunity to work with talented people across sales, engineering, and leadership who were always willing to help.

Kontras

Focus on creating a culture where employees feel respected, supported, and valued. Take employee feedback seriously and hold managers and team leads accountable for how they interact with their teams. When employees raise concerns or ask for support, ensure those issues are addressed with meaningful action rather than being overlooked. Better communication, transparency, and leadership accountability would help build trust, improve morale, and strengthen employee retention.
