      Pros

      A good first job, mentorship is strong to get new engineers up to speed, friendly and smart co-workers. Benefits are nice. Initial rotation between teams to find best match is fun. Plenty of nice little perks, fun office. If that's all you want, you'll find it there.

      Cons

      Focus on first-jobbers means nobody around can see or fix the problems. High turnover - careers are limited by existing leadership and people leave when they want to make a difference and realize they can't. Arbitrary decisions from above remind people of that. Nobody understands our competitors in the company. Leaving the company and seeing the real world is an eye-opener in so many ways.

      Sales as a competitive advantage...

      Business Outlook

      Pros

      - CEO & CRO are 100% committed to building a salesforce that is as much a competitive advantage as the MongoDB technology. They have done it before at BladeLogic and for a few years at BMC so have a track record of success in this area. - Virtually impossible to find another company that is growing this fast and operating in this big a market ($35B market) where you can still get in on the ground floor of the "sales execution" phase of the company. - The new sales leadership is committed to our development and proving that on a daily basis. I'm learning things that will not just help me sell more MongoDB but will also stick with me for the rest of my career (Champion building/testing, MEDDPICC, Value Framework, etc.) - Performance based culture that pays a premium for over achievement. - Although MongoDB is growing so fast, there is still a commitment to only hire "A players" and not compromise...even if it means certain territories remain uncovered - Very talented Sales Engineering team, always feel like I have the best technical team vs. my competition

      Cons

      - It's a good problem to have but can be a challenge, at times customers have already decided to purchase MongoDB before I have had a chance to engage with them, therefore making it challenging to forecast timing & amount accurately
