- Great products - Smart and hard-working people - Flexible work-life balance - Lots of remote staff (it's about delivering, not where you are) - Excellent Executive team

Pros
Couchbase created a company culture that will be at the foundation of its success. Since joining the company I experienced a constructive and collaborative environment where people want to help you succeed. The focus is on teamwork and how we win together. All this starts at the top with a clarity of vision where the company is going and what it expects of its people. If you get a chance to join this company, I would say take it.
Cons
There is a massive opportunity for Couchbase to grow in a market that is in full transition. Different people will have different perspectives on how to go about it. You need to feel comfortable speaking up and be part of the solution, rather than expecting everything will be done for you.

Pros

Cons
Honestly, there were no standout cons
- Current Employee, more than 5 years★★★★★
Pros
People are hired at Couchbase -- across the board -- because they are smart, motivated, and friendly. Sound silly? It's not. We have work life balance and a collegial workplace where NO ONE is granted the special right to be an blowhard/bully/etc. Friendly means we work together and it's enjoyable; conversations are productive and easy.
Cons
Couchbase is much smaller than its competitors. That means we don't have the bandwidth to do everything we might want to. The upside is you get to choose what to work on and you more or less define your own role.
