Pros

Extremely smart and innovative people. Always a challenging environment. A seemingly limitless TAM. The transparency from the executive team is the best I’ve been around, and the passion of the staff is unmatched.

Cons

Humility is hard to find, and there is a certain arrogance associated with HubSpot. Was a great place to work, but the Kool-Aid is really strong there.

Thanks for the feedback, and for being a valued HubSpot alumni. I love your callout on the transparency of the exec team and the challenging environment here. I think your push on the pride of HubSpot is a fair one--we've heard similar feedback in the past. My hope is that we have a strong sense of purpose and teamwork but that we balance that with collective and personal humility--hopefully that is something we've continued to improve on after you left. Thanks as always for the feedback, and hope to see you at an Alumni event soon! -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.
