Pros

Huge opportunity for growth in the company. MongoDB is now firmly established as a company and as a technology, so the early days where people were wearing a million hats is gone as the company got more focused, but the ability to evolve your role and take on new responsibilities based on your skill set or your interests is tremendous. Generally, people just really like each other. Makes going to work fun when you're invested both in the company, the technology and also the team. Great college recruiting program. Lots of interaction between departments. Offices around the world. Regular events and parties and hackathons. Free food :).

Cons

Shifting slightly from startup to mid-size company and therefore experiencing typical growth challenges. As with most emerging tech companies, its a predominately male-led organization and lacks women in leadership positions.

Pros

- Very "techy" startup for being on the East Coast. No social media pointlessness. If you like technical challenges and don't like corporations this is the place to be. - Transparent work culture. - Great, smart, dedicated co-workers. - Lots of individual responsibility across the board. - An actual chance to make an impression on an entire software technology vertical.

Cons

- Messy and changing management and sales structure. - Lack of coherent message and strategy internally. - The company is in a great place technology and market impression wise, but struggling to monetize open source and hence changes strategy very often.

Pros

solid product, great community support

Cons

the product is open source, free of charge. Not to many people want to pay for support, for a product that works very well, and seldom goes down
