Pluspunten

Great product and long standing leadership has made great decisions for the business.

Minpunten

The core leadership team CEO & CFO/COO remain strong but as the company grows it is has been making weak leadership hires and beginning to operate as a large company. We are seeing a lot of people leave because of this. Also the intellectual honesty is disappearing. Instead of doing lay offs like every other company in the tech space, they are having bar raising, then underperforming conversations and managing people out as a result. Feels like a way to reduce the size and operating costs of a company without having to pay people severance packages.

Pluspunten

Most benefits are solid, exception being no matching 401K which is kind of insane for tech. Embraces the use of AI for all employees.

Minpunten

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.
