Pros

- In the sales organisation you are trusted straight away. The hiring process is such that there's a belief by leadership that you as an individual contributor know what you're doing. This is different from many organisations where you have to "earn" trust before leadership lets you run. - This culture is refreshingly straight forward, there are no politics. - The products work - no escalations, customers super happy & wanting to do more with us all the time. - $60bn+ marketplace to go after (every App needs a DB) meaning massive growth opportunities for every employee. - We are the most loved technology by developers so there such a buzz around MongoDB in the market. - The Stockholm office has a great culture of helping one another, sharing stories, having fun and constantly finding creative ways to be successful as a team. - Lots of internal promotions, opportunities to present within wider team training sessions. - Learn from the best in the business - there are so many amazing talents here who are open to sharing how they continue to succeed.

Cons

- It's high intensity, hard work and not for everyone, even if it is super rewarding. - The business is still similar to a startup due to the immense growth, so it's about ensuring we keep the growth mindset whilst keeping the great culture we have today. I know that with the leadership we have in place they are up to the task!

Pros

Most benefits are solid, exception being no matching 401K which is kind of insane for tech. Embraces the use of AI for all employees.

Cons

MongoDB is extremely dysfunctional from a marketing POV. The functional silos built a culture of no collaboration and just checking boxes of doing the same things over and over again. Leadership at the MLT level is out of their depth for what the business needs out of marketing to grow. There is arrogance encouraged by a bully CMO who has her favorites that can be held to different standards than others and it is abundantly clear. That attitude trickles down into all of MLT and never really offer solutions, just criticisms. Pay is lower than other companies for the same role. Lack of clarity of what it takes to get a promotion. Blatant disregard for Employee Engagement surveys that have been on a decline for years that leadership takes no ownership on improving.
