Pros

MongoDB has grown rapidly over the five years I've worked here, both in staff numbers and in the maturity of the product offering. Likewise I seen many people start their careers and use MongoDB as a launchpad for their own growth. The company culture is supportive and encourages introspection backed by a transparent, open executive team. MongoDB's products have global reach and help manage data for many of the world's most dynamic companies, so there are plenty of opportunities to have impact by adding features, improving quality or making products easier to use.

Cons

Head office is in New York, which is a long way from Sydney. Some roles involve moderate amounts of travel, which is either a pro or a con depending on your point of view. Likewise for morning meetings.

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.
