Pros

Really great environment to learn and grow - and to help others do the same. The commitment to the purpose of helping customers grow is palpable. It finds it's way into every conversation and every decision across all functions and levels within the company. The obvious reason to be committed to this purpose is because it means we at HubSpot will grow too, but it's deeper than that. There is a strong belief that we are changing the way the world chooses to engage in commerce...and the "we" driving this change is an awesome group of talented, quirky, driven, and giving game-changers.

Cons

Having lived in many other company cultures, it's hard to find a con. Other reviews talk about the pace of change, the high levels of accountability, the expectation that you'll simply need to get great work done fast - these are all challenges certainly, but if that's what you are looking for, you'll find it.

I love the "we" driving the change line and the advice to "continue to challenge us"--it's people with attitudes like yours that are going to help us get to the next level as a business. I'm deeply grateful for your service to our company and our customers, and for your thoughtful review on being part of our sales team, so thank you! Sincerely, 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.
