Pros

HubSpot is always improving - the motto "If its not broken why fix it" DOES NOT apply here - teams across the company are always working to make HubSpot the best place to work in the world and that is the #1 Pro in my book To name a few of my other favorites: Transparency from senior management Exceptionally smart people Exceptional diversity across teams Unlimited Vacation Policy Great office space Clear promotion + compensation path Fantastic benefits Best of class technology and tech support Access to senior management (Director, VPs, and C-levels) Co-founders consistently in the office hard at work Dog-friendly office Possibilities for internal job movement/ promotion Gym in the office + fitness discounts in Boston

Cons

Is having too much fun at work a con? What about having too many friends at work? OR What about there being too many puppies in the office?!

Love the list you came up with, particularly the fitness stuff (a personal favorite of mine) and the presence of our co-founders as highlights of your experience, and totally agree that adorable dogs can sometimes make it challenging to get work done--my Instagram feed is chock full of cute dogs at HubSpot and their owners (who are pretty great too). Most importantly, your advice is critical--I hope we always listen to individual contributors with the same urgency and priority as we do senior management, so please keep the feedback coming. Thank you again for the thoughtful review and for your hard work at HubSpot! -Katie

Pros

The teams you work with are phenomenal. The knowledge combination between an internal customer facing teams, engineering product development teams, and Sales are unmatched.

Cons

Excessive use of PIPs to oust employees after multiple high revenue launches, with no explanation, actual documentation, or factual data. Reviews have been adjusted to allow for terminations post pre-approved leaves. Salaries are a joke. You are always in a cover yourself mode 24/7. Management reviews are consistently a 2 or 3 out of 5 no matter what. If a team decides you aren’t in the group, management will put you on a “unofficial” PIP without telling you, in order to surprise you at a later date. Even if they are unfounded. Beware of possibility of negative backlash post launches. They will feel the need to assign blame ( such as for timelines or issues related to bugs). Regardless of performance or level of involvement. This is an enormous company with many large paths for career advancement. But micro management is rampant, leaving little room for doing the daily expectations of your actual role. This degrades your opportunities for career advancement.
