Pros

1. Great product and not a huge amount of tech debt 2. Great team members 3. Very interesting problems to solve 4. Not so stressful if you know how to handle yourself

Cons

1. You need to be extremely independent to have success at MongoDB. Nobody is going to tell you what to do or how to do it. You need to figure it out yourself (although this is pros for me, this could not be necessarily true for everybody). 2. Teams are dislocated everywhere in the world, if you happen to be part of one of those teams, you need to sharp your communication skills.

Pros

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.

Cons

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