Pros

The project planning structure gives individual contributors a lot of ownership and decision making authority. The product itself is compelling. This varies, but on average managers are decent (mine was great!) and teams are friendly.

Cons

This is a shareholder-value shop. If that’s your jam, cool. If it’s not, townhalls will be a depressing affair. In addition to living in ethics purgatory, senior leadership employs a really uninspiring 90s-era management attitude that is super dissonant from the innovative tech products.

Thank you for taking the time to provide feedback; we appreciate the positives that you have highlighted and also respect your concerns and take them seriously. We are invested in creating a culture of inclusion that embraces and values differences, and an environment of belonging that welcomes individuals across a range of attributes such as race, gender, sexual orientation, religion, political views, and generation to name just a few; this also includes developing cultural competence and adaptivity relative to global norms that impact leadership and working style, such as hierarchical orientation (power, authority, autonomy, decision making), communication, and group orientation (individual vs team). We are working to build compassionate managers through innovative and ongoing development programs which take time and mutual commitment to meet the needs of our diverse workforce. We encourage all current employees to reach out to their respective People Partner or anyone in their chain of communication to raise concerns and talk through issues to ensure everyone is working in an environment in which they can thrive. If you would be open to sharing more, please get in touch with your People Partner or send an email to jess.katz@mongodb.com.
