Pros

Great co-workers, wonderful learning opportunities, flexible hours, genuine concern from management about how they stack up. The people who work here are invariably smart, and everybody is friendly. They also are aggressive about training & promoting internally, which is great!

Cons

The "unlimited" vacation kind of depends on your manager. I would like it better if they had something additional, like "we mandate a minimum of 2 weeks of vacation per year," so that it's clear that you're expected to use your vacation time. Also, please implement 401(k) matching!

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.
