Pros

The salary at MongoDB is quite decent and competitive compared to similar companies in the tech industry. Benefits and perks are generally good, including health plans, flexible work arrangements, and learning opportunities.

Cons

- The hiring of sales leadership from hyperscalers has led to a decline in the quality of both the team and the work environment. The focus seems to have shifted from competence to cronyism, with promotions going to friends rather than top performers. - There's a lot of talk about big goals and ambitions, but very little emphasis on actual execution and tangible results. - Most of the company’s revenue appears to be organic, raising concerns about the effectiveness of the sales team in driving growth, leading to questions regarding the value of the current sales strategy and leadership in India. - The work culture has taken a turn for the worse, becoming increasingly toxic. Employees feel undervalued, and there's a lack of collaboration and support within teams. In summary, while MongoDB has its merits, recent changes in leadership and culture have created challenges that need to be addressed. I hope the company can refocus on building a strong, competent team and fostering a healthier work environment.
