Pros

Engineering teams are fully autonomous and operate in many ways like individual startups. The teams are only given a high-level mission and not individual features or dates to achieve. The incredibly talented PAAS and FAAS teams allow product teams to narrow their focus and rely on systems just working. The pace of the product teams is unbelievable. The company puts a large focus on personal growth. There are weekly tech talks for the product team, an occasional HubTalk/Failure Forum, classes for management training, and even classes on non-work related topics. Management reads all feedback and reacts accordingly. The product blog is great and another way for employees to share knowledge. The Culture Code is real. Every employee has the HEART referenced by that code.

Cons

The company puts a big focus on "Use Good Judgement" and being hands off. That is a great way to operate, but it may not be for everyone. HubSpot wouldn't be a good fit for engineers who need heavy processes or need to wait for someone to tell them what to do.

Thanks for the feedback--I agree with you that HubSpot is not a fit for everyone and that autonomy requires a comfort level with ambiguity that isn't a great fit for some engineers. I hope long-term we continue to find ways to balance autonomy with guidance and learning in a way that attracts folks who think like founders but doesn't isolate folks who have more experience in larger or more structured settings--if you have ideas on how we can improve, let me know. And the Failure Forum came from engineering feedback, so it's your team I have to thank for coming up with the idea and providing feedback on how we can improve on humility, so thank you! -Katie

Pros

Great company to work for, very innovative, great work life balance, great management. Product sells itself and there is plenty of opportunity for growth.

Cons

Fast paced environment, not necessarily a bad thing, but if that is not what you are looking for this is not a good fit. Could have a better 401K plan that is capped at $1,500 a year match.

Thanks for being part of the team helping make HubSpot a force to be reckoned with in APAC, and for your review. There's lots of updates on management broadly in my post today on the ENPS, more than happy to chat about it if you have time/interest--we know that investing in incredible leadership is critical to career growth and progression for so many of our team members, so expect to see more from us on this one soon. -Katie Burke
