Pros

HubSpot is an incredible place to work and grow your career. I find the work to be challenging in the best way. I've got a manager who supports me wholeheartedly, an executive team that listens and takes action, and peers that are insanely smart, talented, and driven. I've been given the tools I need to succeed, but I have to work hard to provide value for our customers and hit my numbers. Something I really appreciate is that the company practices what it preaches with HEART and our mission. Being in such a transparent workplace is even better than I expected, and the company is open when we aren't meeting goals. It's pretty cool to see it all in action. Another thing I really value is the number of opportunities I have to get involved outside of the 9-5. A few awesome things I'm involved with are Women at HubSpot, People of Color at HubSpot, HubSpot on the Town, book clubs (thanks, free book program!), Healthy at HubSpot, and even a Ru Paul's Drag Race fantasy league.

Cons

It is an incredibly fast-paced place, so it's not built for everyone. For example, I used the unlimited paid time off to take a 2-week vacation and when I came back there were a number of big changes that took place in what seems like the blink of an eye. I personally love this, but it can be tough at times.

How is there a Ru Paul Drag Race fantasy league and no one filled me in!? This is an outrage. All kidding aside, I'm so happy that you found things at HubSpot that make your heart sing, both formal and informal initiatives. There is truly nothing that makes me more delighted than people finding an environment where they thrive, so I'm delighted HubSpot and your manager have done that for you. Your callout on change (particularly coming back from being out of office) is a really good one, thanks for pointing it out. Most importantly, thanks for making our culture better with your input, feedback, and attendance and participation at so many events--it's people like you that make HubSpot so wonderful, so thank YOU for that! -Katie

Thanks for the review and for calling out our commitment to D&I--it means more to me than you know that our programming exceeds what you've seen before in your career, so thank you for that. Totally agree on change, particularly this year, so thanks for calling that out as an area we need to be mindful of. I promise we'll keep doing ENPS and responding to chilis--thanks for your feedback there and here to help us grow and improve! -Katie

Pros

This is my first job out of college and I absolutely love it here. I work on challenging problems and often lead systems design on these projects. The people I work with are brilliant and I learn a ton from them. Working in BET I also get to learn a lot about how our business runs and how we're helping it grow. This is not something I expected when I joined, but has been an unanticipated benefit. Beyond the work itself, HubSpot is a great place to be. The benefits are fantastic and the company really cares about its employees

Cons

A lot of growing pains that I'm sure many companies experience. It often feels very siloed between departments and cross functional projects can be extremely difficult. The level of politics within the company as a whole has risen during my time here and sometimes it feels like we're doing things to placate peoples egos rather than move the company in the right direction. But these are exceptions rather than the rule. It also feels like we love starting big new initiatives and then abandoning them without notice after about a month. We should have more follow through or be more transparent about our focuses changing.

Thanks for the review and for helping BET grow and scale. I agree with you that we sometimes abandon things before truly understanding if they work or not, but I'm really bummed to hear that you think the politics have risen during your time here--that's something we need to actively manage against in my opinion. Couldn't agree more that our strength is in our people and culture, so I promise we'll continue to be vigilant there as we grow and scale. Thanks for taking the time to write this up, and for helping HubSpot and our systems scale and grow. Sincerely, Katie
