A fast, amazing company full of remarkable people
Pros
There are a lot of pros about a growth company like HubSpot. My biggest (and I think one of the most important to deciding if you want to work at HubSpot) is that there's no speed limit at HubSpot. Over the 5 years I've worked here, I've had success going as fast as I was capable of, often being pushed by my peers and leaders to go even faster. I've also seen this for people around me over time, and as we've grown we haven't lost the incredible sense of pace at HubSpot. This results in a limitless pace to personal development, learning, skill development, and (ultimately) career development in a rapidly growing company. And it also means the people around me are experiencing the same pace, success, and growth. That's rare, and that's why I still work at HubSpot and love it - because the pace is as fast as ever (even picking up, maybe!) and it breeds a remarkable group of people in an incredible environment.
Cons
Retrofitting your previously existing skills to HubSpot requires a serious amount of abstract professional thinking. Most job transitions are not as challenging as the one to HubSpot - especially if you're entering in a leadership position. If you're not prepared to adapt to the way the existing business runs, you'll be chewed up pretty quickly.That is to say that there is a "HubSpot Way"; it'd be naive to say it's the "best" way, but it's a way that works well for the people here and for creating a business that positively impacts many, many people. Just be prepared to adapt hard.
