Pros

The company has gone through a lot of change over the past year, and it was warranted. The technical team and product are amazing, but the company was not managed well and it showed. Over the last few months there has been a clear change and now decisions are made far more quickly. It appears that a lot of the weaker performers in Sales have either left or have been let go, along with people who had bad attitudes or just didn't belong. The new CEO seems to is building a new executive team that is bringing more energy and focus to the company. There is also genuine enthusiasm around the new product along with the opportunities ahead, and the company is again investing for growth.

Cons

This is a performance based culture. If you are not comfortable with this then this is not the company for you. Engineering and Sales don't really spend a lot of time together. Needs more cohesion.

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.
