MongoDB - Tell me what sucks about this place, please

Looking for opinions from people who joined #mongodb in the last 3 years as an experienced hire (i.e., not an intern). Any job role, doesn't have to be Eng.
What are the downsides? I keep hearing "growing pains", way too vague. Is there mismanagement? A bunch of pre-IPOers unhappy with how things are changing? I heard something about having a number of managers who were kind of "junior" because they'd risen in the ranks after joining a few years ago with very little experience. Other people have implied that their workload is absurd/overkill. Also, newish CTO and big reorgs? Rumors of lowish TC?
Me: Technical Product Manager (Band 9), 180k TC, 12 YOE
