Pros

This place is exploding in all the right ways, rapid-rapid-rapid growth from both customers and headcount. I've been at start ups, and massive multi-billion dollar public companies and have never seen movement like this. Major issue when I got here was differentiation between open source vs commercial, although now there is a clear path to the value of the commercial version.

Cons

It's intense here, if you aren't down for the ride... don't come here. Long hours, extensive training, 100% accountability. If you aren't doing your job, or keeping up with the pace they expect - it's time to go. That can be intimidating for some, but motivation for others. It can be exhausting at times but the financial reward is out of this world.

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.
