So I’m in the process of buying this mongoose bike from Facebook marketplace. I’m going to be using it for commuting to and from work. I’m short (about 5 even). Would this be a good bike for my commute to work?

No, terrible bike to commute on. Find an older MTB to commute.
The bigger the wheel, the more comfortably of a ride you’ll have. Id look up mountain bikes or cruiser bikes if you’re strictly commuting.
Do not buy this
This is not a good bike
And especially not a good bike brand.
Marks all the boxes, kick stand? Check. Reflectors? Check. Foot high seat post? Check. Regretting your purchase? Check.
Please don’t buy this, unless you’re commuting to an elementary school.
I’d say you’d have the benefit of nobody wanting to steal it, but people will steal anything.
