Pros

The management team is very transparent with the employees, sharing all types of financials, guidance, and big bets for the company moving forward. Lots of autonomy and freedom to manage your role. Lots of great benefits like stocked kitchen, lunches, beer, admission into road races, ski weekends, mystery dinners, and more. They invest a lot in their employees to be happy and create an environment where everyone wants to solve for the customer and grow. The people who work here are all smart in their own way. Development from your direct peers is something I've really taken advantage as there are so many talented people to tap if you're willing to.

Cons

The only area for improvement is having more structured training on an ongoing basis. I think these are growing pains the company is going through and have made some early tweaks to improve it and still has room to improve.

Thanks for the feedback--I specifically love your last note on how our investment in employees translates to our customer experience. That's a huge part of our value proposition and something I agree we need to continue to focus on and invest in. With regard to training, the L&D team has some exciting updates to share on this front soon and our team is working in parallel to create formal and informal channels to help employees grow--if you have specific ideas or suggestions, send them our way, would love to hear them! Most importantly, delighted you're enjoying your time at HubSpot--we are honored to have you here.

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.
