Pros

MongoDB is an incredible place to learn the art and science of sales. If you are truly interested in sales as a career you have the opportunity to learn a tremendous amount and work with very talented people, and if you get good at it, there's a lot of money to be made.

Cons

MongoDB has had some difficulty with promoting in the sales organization, if you want to get promoted you really have to blow it out and navigate the politics of the company. It's also fairly cut throat if you don't perform the leash isn't too long. If you are not committed to becoming a great sales person and are unable to sometimes put internal politics aside and focus on selling I would not suggest coming here. If you want to kill it and learn a lot this is a great place.

Pros

Smart coworkers, fun projects. At the time it still felt like small enough of a company to know people. It's truly an inflection point of my career to work there.

Cons

Not a lot of office perks compared to other big tech companies.

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.
