Pros

- MongoDB is growing a lot - it is well known by everyone in the technology industry - I believe the product is unique (data developer platform, not just a DB) - The company offers a great working model (hybrid, in-office, remote) - It embraces lots of Amazonian cultures but at the same time it cares of employees similarly to companies like Google or Facebook - Recent joining of Jim Scharf (from AWS DDB) makes things ever more promising - Engineering quality is good

Cons

- As the company grows fast, there are team and work processes that need improvement

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)

Pros

Remote work and decent pay

Cons

Really depends on the team, however middle management needs to be addressed. Toxic culture that truly depends on who your manager is. Silent layoffs are made to seem "Performance-based", then job is re-posted at a reduced range. Proceed with caution and understand that HR is not your friend.
