Vantaggi

If you are male and coming from banking, this org is starting to look more and more like a bank in terms of culture. So you'll fit right in.

Svantaggi

Company is bleeding underrepresented groups, particular women in engineering. There are a few token women engineering leaders and the rest you'll find buried in the org chart. There are entire orgs in engineering where you will have a hard time finding *any* women. Really? In this day and age? There is a hole in this boat, and the recruiters are trying to bail water while leadership wonders why they can't retain top female talent anymore. There is also a sort of caste system in HR where "leaders" have one HR rep who focuses on puffing them up while the "workers" get a different HR rep who is powerless to help them.

Thank you for taking the time to provide feedback; we respect your concerns and take them seriously. We are deeply committed to our company value, “Embrace the Power of Differences,” and creating a culture of inclusion by building a diverse workforce and ensuring everyone feels a sense of belonging. We continuously strive to increase representation and have developed a diversity recruiting strategy to support this. Our attrition is also in line with our current representation. We have done several things to ensure this: - In 2018, we signed the Parity Pledge in an effort to increase representation for VP roles and higher. - We continue to ramp up our efforts to access talent from underrepresented communities through our ten external strategic partnerships, including six that focus on increasing access to women and women-identifying tech talent, and have adopted tools that enable inclusive hiring. - We’re piloting a mentorship program for employees from underrepresented groups. - We have specific gender diversity goals in place for our Engineering department to ensure our candidate slates are as diverse as possible. In regards to our HR Business Partners (HRBP) structure, we follow a standard model, where each business unit or function has an HR Business Partner leader who works with the leadership team to define and execute a relevant HR strategy for that part of the business. These HRBP leads also have a small team working with them to ensure employees at all levels of the organization are well-supported when it comes to matters of talent, organizational design, and culture. In addition, we have an Employee Advocate who is available to coach employees who feel they are facing instances of bias, as well as a People Services and Diversity and Inclusion team that can assist further if needed. We are continuously working to create a culture of growth, learning, and development. Several of the ways we do this is through providing support, coaching, and enablement for all employees. Feedback is a key part of this process. If you would be open to sharing more, please get in touch with your People Partner or send an email to jess.katz@mongodb.com.

Vantaggi

Most benefits are solid, exception being no matching 401K which is kind of insane for tech. Embraces the use of AI for all employees.

Svantaggi

MongoDB is extremely dysfunctional from a marketing POV. The functional silos built a culture of no collaboration and just checking boxes of doing the same things over and over again. Leadership at the MLT level is out of their depth for what the business needs out of marketing to grow. There is arrogance encouraged by a bully CMO who has her favorites that can be held to different standards than others and it is abundantly clear. That attitude trickles down into all of MLT and never really offer solutions, just criticisms. Pay is lower than other companies for the same role. Lack of clarity of what it takes to get a promotion. Blatant disregard for Employee Engagement surveys that have been on a decline for years that leadership takes no ownership on improving.
