Pros
As the company is growing quickly it is exciting for everyone to be part of this success. Company values are lived by everyone, teamwork regardless of what department you are in. Work-life balance is also a huge PRO if needed to work from home to run an errand or two it is possible. I think I am most proud of the transparency and trust of Top Management.
Cons
Sometimes the days can be long due to cross continent teams but otherwise, it is manageable.

Pros
A destination employer for ambitious professionals who want to accelerate their development in a company that is really shifting the goal posts in tech. Leadership across the company competent, motivating, empathetic and driven. High hiring standard means bright and impressive colleagues. Enjoyable, rewarding and supportive working environment. Strong pay and benefits, commitment to working hard whilst maintaining healthy work/life balance. Most importantly- a real commitment to developing talent and promoting from within. Wholeheartedly recommend applying. For a non-techie, the product ecosystem is complicated at first but the level of investment in you means you'll surprise yourself with how quickly you pick it up. Character is valued above knowledge in the hiring process for sure.

Pros
3 Months into the role now. Really love the company since the interview. No BS, no bureaucracy. Everything is clear and efficient. It has the type of environment similar to startups, the benefits that are no less than the IT giants as well as the advanced technology that's designed for the new era. Selling software here is way easier when your product is beloved by the developer community, there's no need to make random promises of which you're not sure whether will come back and bite you, demos and workshops can be done easily with confidence as everything just works.

It's not a suitable place if you're just looking for a job to pass time. You should be growing with the company as it's growing really rapidly.

RecommendsPositive OutlookApproves of CEOI have been working at MongoDB full-time for more than a year
Pros
- Extremely competitive salary and benefits - Hyper growth company with many internal growth opportunities - Very strong product - Cultural sweet-spot between hyper-growth "startup" and multinational company - If proactive, a lot of extra-work projects and opportunities - Mentorship available and strong leadership team - Fast learning curve - Travels - Achievable targets if hard-work is the base
Cons
- If not coming from a tech environment, the product ecosystem is not easy to learn at the beginning but there are a lot of resources to get up to speed with it - Some processes are not perfectly defined but it's also an advantage if you like to put your own flavour to these processes
