  • Free reign over internal products gives the team more decision-making power and more responsibility over these tools.
  • Cross-team support is sturdy.
  • Benefits and perks are good.
  • Competitive salary, 401k (no match), health/dental/vision with HSA allowance, free lunch at the office, home office setup with extra swag!
  • Big learning curve and opportunities to shift gears into other teams within MDB.
  • Hybrid model gives flexibility on work conditions and locations.
Cons

Non-relational databases have pros and cons. The biggest downside so far has been foreign key references. Data consistency is managed by middle services, as opposed to a standard DB feature.
