Pros

• Great product, perfectly positioned for the current AI and Agentic AI era. Many customers are expanding their database workflows with MongoDB. • Strong company culture that values learning, ownership, and collaboration. • Benefits are solid overall, and the introduction of the summer schedule in Spain this year was a great addition, consistent with what top companies in the region offer. • Plenty of opportunities to learn, experiment, and connect with brilliant people across different teams and regions. • Diversity is definitely a highlight, with people from all over the world working on my team, which creates a rich and inclusive environment.

Cons

• Depending on the team and industry, there can be periods of intense workload, especially near the end of each quarter when results need to be delivered. • The first few months can feel a bit overwhelming, but in my experience, colleagues are always willing to help, and most situations are flexible and open to discussion.

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.
