Pros

MongoDB is a great company to work for. My colleagues and hardworking, innovative. They also helped me a great deal with project-related issues to get me up-to-speed quickly. Great work-life-balance - most meetings are held taking both East and West coast business hours into account. Solid leadership. You also get subsidized to free lunches if you work at the NYC office.

Cons

None that I can think of, unless you consider the lack of 401k match to be a downside. I think the compensation package makes up for it though.

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.
