Pros

- by far the smartest people I have ever worked with (and I have worked at companies known for having smart people) - demanding culture that focuses on achievement and results, not on seniority or face-time - very work hard / play hard atmosphere with lots of young, smart, energetic folks (and many of them are single and attractive, both men and women - rare for a software company) - very well known company (especially in Boston) and working at HubSpot for a few years enhances your career greatly - once in a lifetime opportunity to work for a hyper-growth company with a shot at becoming the 0.01% of companies that go from startup to multi-billions

Cons

- you have to be a "go getter" or "self starter" to be successful, no one spoon feeds you - compensation is very good, but not top of the charts (this is person specific though) - people are dedicated and passionate, if your job is not one of your key passions, you'll feel lost

Pros

Interesting technologies to work with, lots of customers and big engineering challenges to tackle.

Cons

Culture of fear favoritism. Unless you're not among the blessed few, you will be forced out. Voicing any opinion contradictory to the current way of thinking will land you on the outside looking in. Frequent compulsory "hackathons" that are nothing more than an excuse to force engineers to work until 2am.

Pros

HubSpot has a rare culture that you do not find with most companies. There is a unique balance of a laid back attitude, where often times you do not even feel like you are work, while at the same time everyone is working extremely hard with one common goal in mind. You are surrounded by an extremely intelligent (yet humble) hard working group of people where no matter your place in the company you feel like you are on a team. There is a constant energy running through the place that leaves you feeling excited to be at work and that you are participating in something big. Open door policy does not fully capture how accessible everyone really is – all of upper management, including the CEO, are extremely approachable people who genuinely care about their employees. HubSpot is highly focused on career growth and it is not uncommon to see people try on new roles with full support/mentorship from their respective managers. I can’t say enough positive things about this place – it is packed with an amazing group of driven/friendly people and truly stands behind the “work hard, play hard” attitude.

Cons

The work life balance can be a little tricky but putting your full effort and time in you will definitely reap the rewards.
