Pros

What I have been able to achieve for my personal growth within MongoDB may not have been possible at any other company. I have been here for 4 years now, and I can't remember a single boring week. It's almost a new challenge everyday. The company is growing so fast that constant learning for any employee is a basic necessity. Two strong aspects are definitely its product offerings and talent. Management is cooperative and open to new ideas. Low ego to talent ratio is a norm which makes everyone comfortable and excited to learn more and perform better. (It's actually put in job descriptions) Technical Services at MongoDB is a part of MongoDB Engineering and helps customers with their complex MongoDB deployments. This part of the organisation has a significant impact on the overall business. People in TS always have a diverse background, and the skills are generally spread across the technology stack with additional expertise in MongoDB ecosystem. Given this, constant learning in technology areas of your choice are always encouraged and supported.

Cons

The personal worth in terms of skillsets keeps increasing but leaving the company becomes a little difficult given there are only limited organisations which can offer similar benefits.

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.
