      Why didn't I know about Mongo earlier in my career?

      Pros

      MongoDB is a truly special place and my only complaint is that I did not know about Mongo earlier in my career. If you like to work hard, solve interesting problems, and work with others who like to work hard and are truly invested in their work, Mongo is a fantastic place to be.

      Cons

      This isn't necessarily a con for the right person, but there is a lot of inspection at MongoDB. This is true for most departments. We are a high growth technology company so an attitude of 'rest and vest' is not welcome here. Your performance will always be inspected. You will always know what's going well and what's not going well. There is a strong bias to action and this bias requires a lot of energy to maintain.

      Seems to be going downhill

      Pros

      Learn sales processes and frameworks that will serve you well in your career. Great peers at AE level, and a handful of mid-managers. Product is well-known/adopted in developer community

      Cons

      See below from May 14 “sick sales culture, incompetent management etc.” Spot on from my experience. Comp plan for sellers is so much out of the control of the AE. Seasonality, database optimization (people saving money in a down economy by right-sizing their DB etc. DIRECTLY impacts your quota attainment and commission earnings. Top AEs have either been here for 5 years or straight up got lucky with accounts ready to adopt MongoDB. The lions share is struggling. Forecasting is next to impossible (even leadership agrees) in this consumption-based model and there seems to be little empathy from mid-management for the things that are out of your control. They are “excuses” and if you’d just call 100 people every day (as a Strategic AE) that will solve all problems. And it’s funny how these factors are excuses if you’re a seller but “macro-economic conditions out of your control” if you’re leadership talking to the Street. Not a good place to be a seller right now. Maybe 3-5 years ago
