Pros

MongoDB offers an energetic, intelligent, welcoming, and collaborative work environment, and a great work-life balance too. People inside and out of the company are excited about the product and the potential it has. The executive team is approachable, and communicates their vision clearly. Of course, there are also great perks like food, drinks, yoga & fitness classes, massages, showers, ping pong, pool table, and basketball! There always seems to be something going on in the office.

Cons

None other than the office being so close to Times Square, and that it can sometimes be difficult to find a phone/conference room.
