Pros

Usual IT perks- free food, free sweets, free beer. Educational allowance. Laid back attitude when performing well from most managers.

Cons

The lack of proper planning is glaring at times - the let's see how things go and then react attitude may work for management in terms of staying flexible but it affects the sales floor morale, stress levels and promotion path. US centric thinking, the company hasn't mastered the art of localisation. There's a real sense of the have and have nots.

Sorry to hear your sentiment about both lack of forward-thinking planning and a truly global approach-that's certainly the exact opposite of what we strive for on both counts. I'm sure you've heard that we are planning the company meeting at the end of the month in Dublin specifically to highlight our EMEA customers, partners, and employees, so I'm hoping I have the chance to catch up with you in person there to hear more about how we can improve. Always feel free to email me directly if there are specific actions that can move the needle here; in the meantime, appreciate you sharing your sentiments with our team to help us get better. -Katie

Pros

HubSpot was a window into a workplace you can actually enjoy. The employees are intelligent and fun. You have access to a snack area, beer fridge, ping pong table, games, hammocks, etc., and you learn a LOT while you're on the job. Despite the Cons listed below, this is still a really great place to work.

Cons

Into salary is on the lower end of the scale (but by no means is it unlivable or far below average). With enough rear-kissing, you can move up, even if you're not qualified. If you're exceptionally talented, you can move up. Once you've worked here, you have the skills to be successful and desirable/attractive to other companies who will gladly hire you and at a hire salary than you made at HubSpot.

Pros

AMAZING. COLLEAGUES. They are some of the smartest people I've ever met, and the most friendly and easy-going. Definitely the kind of people that you'd like to stay in touch and stay friends even after if and when leaving HubSpot. Good job recruiting the brightest people out there!

Cons

A LOT depends on your manager, which can be good and bad. Every manager manages their team differently, and that reflects on the flexibility of where/when/how you work sometimes regardless of how much you deliver. Also, not much of a con depending on some people, but there is a lack of teamwork in a day-to-day. Of course there are plenty of times when we reach out to others for help/guidance or confirming something, but most of the job is done alone.

Thank you for the review and for helping our customers in Japan grow as we scale. I would agree with your push on ensuring we think global first--the objective for our growth is to create a really strong global culture but also to empower local traditions that help us give employees autonomy in each market to solve for our customers and prospects. We'll continue to innovate on the ground in Japan and look forward to working with you to make that happen and to visiting the team again in the near future--such a wonderful group of HubSpotters and the photos of your new space look wonderful! -Katie
