Pros

HubSpot was somewhere I called my 2nd home for a little over 3 years. In those 3 years, the company naturally changed due to being in a hypergrowth phase, yet I will always have extremely fond memories. - Company culture is outstanding. Employees are genuinely valued, relationships are built and the office is generally a very fun place to be. - Fantastic environment for those who like to learn. You are challenged but never without appropriate support. You work with very intelligent people that help you upskill in a way that will not only help you in your current role at HubSpot, but will benefit the rest of your career.

Cons

-There sometimes can be an air of elitism when it comes to hiring and an inflated sense of ego. Nothing extremely detrimental, but enough to think "Hey, don't take yourself so seriously."

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.
