Pros

The technology is transforming the industry. Customers and community members love using MongoDB. There are interesting problems to solve across the organization (engineering, sales, marketing, etc.) and smart, collaborative people working on them. I am always learning something new here. The company is growing quickly and there are opportunities for career advancement and expansion of responsibilities. The work environment is also high-energy and fun, and teams enjoy socializing together.

Cons

We're growing quickly and things move fast, so you have to be adaptable. The standards are high and you have to be prepared for 100% accountability.

Pros

MongoDB's technology is second to none. Work atmosphere (Austin Office) was a lot of fun. Great people working there. The Austin Office makes sure they have office events to ensure everyone is engaged. Loved attending those!

Cons

Headcount vs quota is out of whack. The product is free, and trying to get someone to pay for something they have been using for years is pretty tough. Especially, when there is really not a functional change between the free version versus the enterprise version. Sure, there are some advantages for paying for it, but not enough advantages for MongoDB's asking price. They also scaled up sales fast, without understanding the financial trade off of having reps not hitting their number.
