      Pros

      5 years ago, when I set out to find a new job, I really searched for companies that valued their employees. In some of my previous jobs, that was certainly not the case. At the time, Dharmesh was just releasing the Culture Code and I was immediately sold. The autonomy, trust, and positive attitude exhibited at HubSpot are far beyond any other company I've worked for in my 20-year career. The management team takes the feedback from quarterly (anonymous) employee surveys very seriously and has proven themselves over the years to fix patterns of issues. As a manager, I've learned a lot on how to help people achieve their goals and take on more responsibility. As an engineer, I've been able to carve out time to pursue difficult technical challenges and get recognized for them. The technical infrastructure is amazing, allowing engineers to iterate quickly and ship stuff. Hands down, this is the best job I've ever had and I'm terribly concerned that if I ever have to leave, I'll be very disappointed that my next company doesn't live up to my experience at HubSpot.

      Cons

      The company has grown a lot and while that allows us to get more done, it also drastically increases the coordination and communication needed to launch a project. Sometimes it's not clear who owns what. It's a bit easier for people who have been here a long time, but I think it's really hard on new folks. With great power comes great responsibility. If you're not comfortable shipping things and then being on call in case it blows up in the middle of the night, then HubSpot may not be for you. Luckily, we have a lot of resiliency in our architecture, so services are much more reliable than in other companies I've worked at.

      Thank you for your really thoughtful review, I appreciate you taking the time to write it--I love that your standards are now set by HubSpot, and that we've delivered on the promise we made to you five years back when you joined and with the launch of the Culture Code. I agree with you on launch coordination--there is some pain for sure there that we can continue to evolve as we grow. On showing up on diversity and reliability, I think Eric is really setting an incredible tone on both fronts, and I look forward to supporting him in any way I can to help ensure our product is reliable and our company is meaningfully diverse and inclusive as we grow! -Katie

      Pros

      Great people, everyone is so understanding and supportive. Culture is fun and energizing, people seem happy to be here. There's lots of ways to get involved outside of your day job. Awesome benefits and flexibility - love the remote first work environment, week of rest, open PTO, etc. Robust tech stack - lots of tools available for me to do my job.

      Cons

      Experiencing some growing pains but leadership seems receptive to feedback on it.

      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.
