Pros

They take good care of employees. The company itself is killing it.

Cons

Entire company is focused on sales. Bunch of men who talk about golf and make sports metaphors in every, training, meeting, and interaction. Sales leaders are frat bros. Executives (besides CEO, he is wonderful) also just talk about golf and their favorite expensive activities and their wonderful lives. Out of touch.

Thank you for taking the time to leave a review. We take the concerns of all employees seriously. MongoDB is committed to building a diverse organization and fostering a culture of inclusion: “Embrace the power of difference” is one of our core values, and we recognize that every individual has their own unique perspectives and experiences that make them who they are. It is our goal to continue building MongoDB as a diverse, equitable, and inclusive company. Increasing the representation, including women and nonbinary individuals, in sales roles is a major goal. Within our Sales organization, we have made consistent progress increasing the percentage of women in the org, while building a culture of inclusion among Sales leaders. Our Sell Like a Girl affinity group, founded by women in Sales leadership back in 2020 and sponsored by our CRO, is another source of impact. The group aims to make MongoDB a top employer for people who identify as women in Sales by supporting the recruitment process of women candidates and retention of women sales executives through support, leadership development, and mentorship.

Pros

None that I can think of

Cons

This company isn't somewhere you go if you want to make money or be independent. They treat their salespeople like BDR's, there are no leads and base pay is very low. The busy work, trainings and office policy are unacceptable.

CS is lost

Pros

- Brand name company - Strong onboarding - Product market fit

Cons

CS responsibilities continue to move in a worse direction and directly compete with Sales and SAs while we’re supposed to be partnering. It turned into a role where you have monitor sales ethics and even get in the way of their bonus comp while continuing to try and be a part of the account team. Its almost all of the bad of sales without any of the good. CSM Management is clueless and doesn’t know to how to deal with the challenges at the IC level. The incentive structure breeds a culture of lies and politics. Stay so far away from this job.
