Great People. Awesome offices Sabbatical after 5 years Stocked Kitchen

Unlimited vacation policy - company has high attrition rate and the "benefit" is that Hubspot does not pay out vacation time if you leave

Thanks for the review--we love hearing from HubSpot Alumni! Not sure when you were at HubSpot, but we're fortunate to have a really high employee retention rate, which we're really proud of, partially because of some of the things you mentioned (great people plus perks like the sabbatical). On the manager side of things, you're right that we promote a lot of folks to first-time management, and for awhile there our support for first-time managers lagged behind our growth, so we've been investing heavily to impact that and our training team has developed some really strong plays to help address it proactively. I hope if you consider coming back to HubSpot that we've really improved there, but either way, thank you for the feedback--we'll keep working hard to improve on a few of the things we can improve upon! -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.
