Pros

Truly a dev-centric employer. At MongoDB you get great work-life balance, an incredible culture of building high quality software without deadline pressures. If you do well in your role, you get recognised and promoted without asking for it. Once you're doing well it will be hard to find an employer to compete with the salary and equity. Engineers have a voice and are treated as key players in the company.

Cons

I have been there for 3 years, and have a hard time thinking of anything!
