Pros

Worked at HubSpot for just under 5 years, before making a move to take on a bit more risk working at a startup. Everything about HubSpot is great. You have the opportunity to switch roles pretty easily, try out new things, and always be learning. Pay is competitive and the benefits are great. Benefits are definitely something that I miss now making the move to a smaller company. Still very connected to a lot of friends from HubSpot - people are awesome.

Cons

Over my time at HubSpot - the internal politics definitely turned into something that was a little annoying, but not surprising for a company that grew from 100 to 2000 in my time there.

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.
