Pros

I've been at HubSpot for over 4 years and there are so many things that I love about HubSpot that it's hard to count. The people that I work with are some of the best of breed - they're smart, creative, hard-working, helpful, and sincere. In many ways it's inspiring and challenging in raising the bar; it also reinforces that this is the way you should feel about the people you work alongside with (ie a team). HubSpot recruits for very particular values and has a process that is proven to work, and nurtures employees to those values to ensure they grow too. HubSpot's software has come so far in the years that I've been there, and is now a world-class technology stack. The product team that we have is incredible in liaising with people on the ground so that we have a constantly evolving and improving vehicle for customers to derive growth from. This happen - ie bugs, but they work tirelessly to do right by our customers. This ideology of "solving for the customer" is present in every being at HubSpot, and I love that. This means that we aren't selling something and leaving that person hanging, it's about ensuring that they know how to use it, apply it to their business, and learn from it so that they can own their own growth. That is really powerful stuff that makes it easy to be passionate about selling. Seeing the results that they achieve is pretty incredible too. HubSpot also let me move to being a remote employee - I am so thankful for being given that opportunity. If you propose an idea and it makes sense (quantitatively first, then qualitatively), HubSpot is willing to try just about anything. That is a really empowering feeling.

Cons

Big changes happen frequently within the sales organization and the admin is sometimes difficult to transition to. Sales team is also very political. Selling Marketing Automation isn't easy, requires a lot of work to first learn, then qualify, differentiate, and close. We find that 18months in is when reps start to hit their stride, and it's true. Inbound leads only is a thing of the past - you have to prospect outside of what you are given if you want to be successful

Thank you for four years helping HubSpot grow, and for taking the time to write this up. I love that you call out the improvements to our product in the time you've been here, and that you enjoy being a remote employee. My sense is as we grow we'll have a larger population of folks wishing to work remotely full or part time, so we are working on some key plays to effectively support that goal as we grow and would love your input. I agree we need to continue to iterate on internal communications--we've made some improvements, but it's not cranking where it needs to be just yet. Appreciate your write-up and the work you do to help HubSpot partners grow globally. Our partner channel is critical to the growth of our company, so thanks for helping them grow alongside our company! -Katie

Why Work at HubSpot?

Pros

Where to begin! Stock options, dental care, health care, free breakfast and lunch, continual education and training, openness of direct and upper management. HubSpot is exponentially good for benefit. The promotion path for sales is also very clear and achievable once you put the work in.

Cons

The workload is heavy, but manageable. You can expect to work 10 hour days as opposed to the traditional 9-5, especially when you're starting out and trying to develop a pipeline. That said, the days go quickly as you are so busy.
