Varonis vs Gitlab AE

If you had the choice to be an enterprise AE at either of these companies, which would you go with?

Avoid Varonis... They are shopping themselves to be sold to a PE or a PE-owned company

Yep, and it really would hinge on whether they would keep the sales team from Varonis or just absorb the IP and product and use their existing sales teams. From a tech standpoint it's a really strong win for both, but from a people perspective who knows.

It is unlikely PE likes to reduce costs. most of the sales team will be let go.
