Pros

MongoDB has a great work culture and show a lot of transparency. Almost all of the directors or VPs on the Engineers side has a strong programming background. So the management is very Engineering friendly. A project is not considered done until all the tech-debt around it is cleared. Everyone around you are very helpful. The environment is very stress free with lot of fun clubs and activities going on.

Cons

Depending on your work location, with the amount of rapid hiring, workspace around you could get a bit congested.

Pros

In the words of a friend I recently asked to come to our new top floor Sussex St Chinatown office for interviews: “The people here are really switched on.” In their spare time, they work on being allies and advancing the causes of gender equality, building artificial endocrine systems, playing amazing board games I have not even heard of, table tennis, women’s groups, escape rooms, MIT puzzles challenges, skunkworks, sustainability ... all of which dwarfs my teamwork in successfully defending a world championship with UNSW Computer Science and Engineering in teaching robots to play soccer, with no human intervention and no remote control; or advancing the cause of mathematics education via building out a step-by-step platform for ideas worth spreading like “Should we be paying our kids to do their maths homework?”

Cons

A long term focus on thinking big and going far. Please don't apply at MongoDB if you aren't expecting to be with MongoDB for the four year contract.
