Can you clarify what you mean by this? You're Matt Kroll and you're confirming that you still work for MongoDB? (I'm afraid that nothing is obvious from anyone's usernames.)

I'm Matt Kroll. I can confirm I was never Head of Sales at MongoDB. And I can confirm (as anyone can see on LinkedIn.com) that I departed MongoDB for Google to continue to work as an Enterprise sales rep.
If that's the only inaccuracy then I don't think you can call that post 'extremely inaccurate' and worth deleting?
His entire position was based on this idea that executives were leaving.

Which is completely false. Ergo his entire post is false.

Just do a bit of digging. Both names dropped appear to be accurate from usernames/profiles. Matt did indeed leave MongoDB for Google, that much is accurate.
Yes, and that is the only part that is accurate. If you look at my LinkedIn profile, you will see that I was NEVER Head of Sales at MongoDB.
Someone is trying to distance themselves from something.
Yeah- someone posting lies about me on Hacker News. Just look at my LinkedIn profile. I don't understand how this is even a discussion.
