Business Outlook

Pros

MongoDB is an incredible company with incredible technology. The pros of the SDR are a ton! There's so much growth that happens in this position, and it truly opens the door to any sales job in tech. You get to learn the nitty gritty of a sales job and are trained to perform at the highest level. The standard for work is exceptional and you get the feeling you are constantly working amongst the best in the industry.

Cons

There isn't much work/life balance, and the company culture in sales is highly competitive and many times you find yourself working overtime (self-imposed). Since MongoDB is going through exponential growth changes occur constantly.
