What It's Like to Work at MongoDB

I feel privileged to be a part of an organization where everyone's perspectives and experiences are valued and heard. The work we do is challenging, but seeing the impact we have on our customers is truly rewarding.

What truly sets winning teams apart is their ability to come together—not just to work, but to learn, grow, and inspire one another. At MongoDB, it’s the team-building moments, impromptu conversations, and recognition of excellence that bring our bold vision to life.

MongoDB has established a safe environment where everyone feels comfortable asking questions, regardless of their complexity or nature. We publicly communicate, and this openness allows the whole team to benefit from the shared information. It's an incredibly open, supportive, and dynamic team to be a part of.

As the lead of a skilled product team, MongoDB continues to exceed my expectations by providing limitless opportunities to develop myself and my team. Our diverse group of global team members across product and engineering brings unique perspectives and experiences to the table.

At MongoDB, we are all genuinely committed to the success of the company and to each other. We embrace mistakes as a learning opportunity. We come up with big ideas and we execute on them. We hold each other accountable along the way. And most importantly, we have fun.

I joined MongoDB as the Executive Assistant to our CEO, Dev Ittycheria. During my time working with Dev, I saw firsthand the transparent nature of our leadership team. Though they are focused on the market opportunity in front of us and ensuring MongoDB is set up for long-term success, it does not come at the expense of our people.

After a few years on the team, I'm still consistently growing my skill set and working on interesting, fun projects – two primary reasons I continue to work at MongoDB.
