Pros

-Smart and talented coworkers. Can honestly say I don't have any coworkers that I don't enjoy working with. -Employees are actually given the autonomy to work when/where is most convenient as long as the work gets done and is done properly. -Amazing benefits/perks/culture (great insurance, work from home, kitchen, coffee garden, PTO, casual dress, dogs etc.) -The transparency here seems to be pretty unprecedented for a company of this size. It's insightful to have access to founder/C-level thoughts on topics ranging from corporate strategy to hiring initiatives. -It is refreshing to see hard-working people promoted from within.

Cons

-Cyclical work and growth leads to work-life balance being an issue sometimes. There are some late nights required by a lot of people to keep this place running. -I could likely receive a higher compensation package while working less hours in a similar role elsewhere.

Great feedback, thanks for taking the time to share it. I like your specificity on autonomy, benefits, and transparency, and your callout that we help people grow internally. I think you're right that sometimes late nights, particularly for finance, can be a challenge, so it's something we should continue to keep an eye on as we grow. If I can do anything to help navigate these, please let me know--thanks as always for the feedback and for the hard work you do to help HubSpot grow. -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.
