Business Outlook

Pros

People really do embrace our values. Especially our value "Embrace the power of differences". As a global lead for one of our ERG's, I see this in action constantly. Of course there is always room for improvement but MongoDB culture is more than just a set of words. I value the people I work with and it is reciprocated. I feel I can make a difference, and can use my strengths to help improve our processes to align with our company objectives.

Cons

I was recently impacted through a company reorg. It was a stressful time, and the process could be improved.
