Pros

Growing company, the open source database speaks for itself. Seamless twice a week.

Cons

The sales org at MongoDB is a 'me too' movement waiting to happen. Zero diversity and they use fear internally to motivate. There is absolutely zero culture. Forced "happy hours" are awkward and there is no work life balance. People come early and stay late to appear like they are putting in work. Extremely low base salary in the software industry that is non negotiable. Difficult to sell an open source database platform. Total chop shop - SALES PEOPLE BEWARE.

Pros

Product reputation in market. Working with Class-A Leadership (CEO Dev Ittycheria , CFO Michael Gordon & CTO/Co-Founder Eliot Horowitz). Their vision, commitment to execution and customer-first approach is inspiring. Training and Development - move to MongoDB if you're looking for an MBA in Sales. The Training and Expectations of Sellers are high - perfect to advance your career and become employable anywhere.

Cons

Package (Comp/Salary) not as competitive as other tech vendors in the market & industry. Employee stock-plan is good.
