Pros

MongoDB provides a wide range of positions for new grads to pick three and rotate on each for about 5-6 weeks before deciding a permanent team. While teams have completely different tech stacks and style (from system programing to front-end development, C++ to Go, large department to small start-up style team), they all share the same great culture.

Cons

It's hard to apply for new grads directly and most of them are return interns.

Pros

Supportive people, a strong culture, and meaningful flexibility are the biggest positives. I've had the chance to work with thoughtful colleagues who care about doing good work and helping each other succeed. There are solid opportunities to learn, build relationships across teams, and contribute in a way that feels impactful.

Cons

Workloads can be heavy during busy periods, and priorities can sometimes shift quickly (which is expected in growing companies)

Pros

Remote work and decent pay

Cons

Really depends on the team, however middle management needs to be addressed. Toxic culture that truly depends on who your manager is. Silent layoffs are made to seem "Performance-based", then job is re-posted at a reduced range. Proceed with caution and understand that HR is not your friend.
