Pros

-Great people. (The folks who work at HubSpot are sharp and empathetic. They help you raise the bar with a truly human approach) -Great Culture (Which is a product of the quality people who are hired as well as the intentional manner that leadership takes to cultivate it.) -A place where you can build and make a difference. (You can really own your interests and develop programs that excited you at HubSpot.)

Cons

-I think we could improve our training/education of existing managers. Since HubSpot grew so fast so quick, I believe that people grew in their careers at an accelerated pace and did not have the correct prior training on becoming a new manager. (Note: this is something that is currently in the works. So I am excited to see the future improvements. Nice work team!)

Love to hear this and very happy one year anniversary at HubSpot! We're so glad you chose to work and grow better with us, and I really appreciate your feedback--you're spot on that our approach to culture is cultivated by the entire management team, so thanks for calling that out, and I would agree with you we have work to do on manager development-as you said we've made big investments there in the last year, and I think and hope you'll see them continue to pay off. Keep the feedback coming and thanks again for all your hard work at HubSpot, we're so glad you're here. -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.
