Pluspunten

-- Pay is great. -- Health Benefits are great. -- Equity is ok. -- Product is solid. -- The work is exciting and the technologies used are great for experience.

Minpunten

-- Extremely overloaded, we pretty much work around the clock. But still pressured constantly that we must "Raise the bar". -- A large amount of employees have horrible attitudes, very rude and zero compassion. -- Priorities change daily/weekly and are in addition to fully loaded planned work. Everything is a priority and immediately pushed on you with expectation that your current "thing" will be finished as it was a commitment. -- Not hiring, which causes tech debt and current workloads to continue to drown the employees which put in the work. -- Remote workers are no longer aided in any way (You pay your own bills, no benefits to help) -- PTO is unlimited, but you will never get to use it because you are lucky if you even get your evenings and weekends off, much less a work day. -- Requirements are never provided, and the work is demanded on an arbitrary timeline that is never realistic. -- Story points are not story points but timesheet style hourly commitments. -- Team development? Not here, everyone has their own full sprints of hours and you are lucky if anyone is helping you or you helping others. -- Even if you are a rockstar, better than average reviews are extremely limited, if that, as a way for the company to cut costs. -- VERY UNEVEN DISTRIBUTION OF EQUITY FROM TOP DOWN

Pluspunten

Supportive people, a strong culture, and meaningful flexibility are the biggest positives. I've had the chance to work with thoughtful colleagues who care about doing good work and helping each other succeed. There are solid opportunities to learn, build relationships across teams, and contribute in a way that feels impactful.

Minpunten

Workloads can be heavy during busy periods, and priorities can sometimes shift quickly (which is expected in growing companies)

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.
