Great Company for Career Growth!
Software Engineer • Current Employee

Pros: There's a breadth of teams that do different things with varying cultures.
I liked that I was able to choose a team that suited me best when I went through the new grad rotation program.
I liked that MongoDB is very invested in its intern/campus program.
As a result, there's a good focus on making sure that you are getting the most out of working here.
The people who work here are smart, humble, and are overall great to work with!
Cons: I haven't really noticed anything specifically bad about MongoDB as a company.
However, depending on the team you're on, I've noticed that sometimes it's hard to get recognized for the work you do.
If you're on a larger team, you need to make sure that you are actively promoting the work you do.

Culture depends on your manager

Pros: Good work-life balance, generally chill coworkers.
Cons: I've worked many years at this company, and I can say that it once had a good culture.
I'm not sure when it went downhill, but I've definitely seen a lot of my friends leave within the last year because of bad managers or uninteresting work.
Managers used to be really good. Behavioral interviews were an emphasis, and I can't say that's the case anymore. It can be hit or miss, and if you're unlucky with a bad one, then your experience can be terrible.
