Pluspunten

The product is great. Significant collaboration with account executives. They essentially bring in the customers. Some teams are better than the others. As an EM your job is to attach professional services to existing ongoing deals and see it through closure. Great pay. Good Benefits. Great work-life balance.

Minpunten

The scope of work in professional services engagement management team is pretty narrow. Role is limited to selling and not delivery. Not challenging enough. Too many supporting roles with very narrow breadth of responsibilities. This role can be eliminated completely, if they give training to Account executives or Solutions architects, or Consult engineers who actually deliver the work. Leadership is only focused on numbers and not their team. Very poor gender and diversity ratios. Very slow growth potential, especially if you are a person of color. Poor succession planning. Strangely enough the senior leadership keeps getting promoted, yet they keep doing the same job and nothing changes down the line. Poor feedback culture. Managers/Leaders will not help with personal growth. Huge dependency on account executives. Also, as soon as you join, the employee experience team will ask you to drop a review on glassdoor. Most reviews here are when people are in their very early days of employment, so take it with a pinch of salt.

Pluspunten

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.

Minpunten

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