Pros

Really great product and a ton of leads. Culture is fun and it's an easy job.

Cons

Salespeople are not talented there and super over-confident. All the good ones have left and either started companies or gone onto sales leadership positions at growth stage startups. Territories have shrunk a lot, which is to be expected. The BDR program is a joke and I heard it is getting worse which is hard to believe. All in all cool place, but got really big really fast and individual contributors are no longer valued.

Thank you for being a HubSpot alum, and for the review--sorry to hear your frustrations with the BDR program, but I would push back on the fact that individual contributors aren't valued here--I think particularly on sales we have a lot of systems in place to reward their hard work. With that said, many of the things you said are things that we are continuing to iterate and work on--we'll keep at it, thanks for the thoughtful feedback to help us get better. Sincerely, 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.
