Pros

- Interns have real responsibilities, are involved in decision making meetings, and get to work on projects that are significant to the future of the company - Company culture is great. Fellow interns were very sociable with top tier technical skills - MongoDB has a variety of opportunities for interns, including front-end work, as well as system level database work - Mongo does a lot to ensure interns have a great time, including setting them up in great housing together at NYU

Cons

- It may be difficult to get excited about working on a database - Variety of intern projects vary greatly, some were probably less interesting

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.
