Pros

Money and stock are the main reasons to be there.

Cons

It was toxic when I left; no coaching or feedback, just a lot of young, arrogant, and superstar wannabe's (in sales leadership anyway) who don't care about anyone or anything that doesn't impact their wallet.

Thank you for taking the time to provide feedback. Our goal is to ensure that everyone has a positive experience working at MongoDB, and the more information we have, the better we can address issues. Leadership development is a big focus for this fiscal year. So far we've invested heavily in new manager training, and we are excited to bring that level of support to all layers of leadership at MongoDB. We strive to uphold a culture of growth and development by providing opportunities for coaching and feedback sessions between employees and their managers. Employees are encouraged to reach out to our Employee Experience team (employeeexperience@mongodb.com) if they feel they are not experiencing this in their role.

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.
