Pros

I've been working at HubSpot for many years and have seen the company grow and change. The core principles haven't changed though: ultimate transparency, trusting employees to use good judgment to do their jobs, and being innovative. These days, working with smart people and having the flexibility to do your job as you wish in a fun environment is worth everything.

Cons

This is not a 9-5 job that you can leave behind when you go home. Also, certain career paths leave less room for growth within the company as the skills don't translate as well to other departments without taking a huge pay cut and starting over (I suppose that's the case no matter where you work).

Thanks for the write-up and for helping our customers grow better with HubSpot. I love that you called out flexibility and transparency as core reasons you love your role, I would agree! I think your point on not being a 9-5 is a fair one, and we are working hard to ensure that career growth includes newer and more veteran employees alike, so I hope we can continue to grow and iterate there. Appreciate your thoughtful notes and feedback, thanks for all you do. Sincerely, Katie

Pros

- smart and friendly people - interesting work - ample opportunity to grow - autonomous teams are agile and fight bloat - personal boundaries for work-life harmony are respected - leadership is genuine when encouraging employees to take time off and recharge - unlimited vacation/PTO - use good judgement - flexibility to work remote is awesome - key job-critical tools are all in the cloud, meaning I can work from different computers if necessary, which makes the work-remote perk even more reliable - conference rooms with Zoom are PURE MAGIC and really make it easier to connect with colleages in different offices globally - really excellent healthcare plan - Cambridge office is gorgeous

Cons

- work-life harmony doesn't just happen, HubSpot is full of go-getters so of course the momentum is to get stuff done; that being said, when you make a clear boundary, people warmly respect it! - pro tip, unlimited vacation means that you can't get paid for unused days if you were to transition to another company, so, better make good use of them! :)

First things first, this is an outstanding title for a review, and sounds like it could be a Broadway play OR a Glassdoor review, which is impressive, so kudos to you for your descriptive title and thoughtful review. I appreciate your feedback, candor, advice on taking vacation (I agree people should use it!), and your note on the tension of autonomy as we grow being worth it. Thank you for helping us grow better operationally as we scale, and for taking the time to share this, I really appreciate it! -Katie

Pros

When I make mistakes, people help me learn and grow from it, and don't focus on blaming me. When I succeed, people help celebrate my success. This culture lays the groundwork for moving fast, failing fast, and continuous iteration which I think is key for success. Many companies stop caring about their employees' satisfaction as they scale. HubSpot is scaling like crazy and makes sure to invest proportionally in employee satisfaction. I think this will be instrumental in keeping HubSpot as a top destination for talent. Great product with extreme potential. I feel like my manager cares about finding work for me that interests me, while addressing the needs of the business. I have received great mentorship. Many fun / social opportunities (like mystery dinners, where employees are randomly matched with execs and share a meal together) Awesome facilities: showers, gym, meditation room, free kitchen, tea-making robot. Fantastic infrastructure and support for engineers. Clear communication about requirements for career growth.

Cons

401k matching is weak, some flashy benefits offered but 401k matching lags behind.

This is such a thoughtful review, thank you for making the time to share such detail about what you love about working here and the detailed feedback and advice for us, which seems spot on to me. I love that you feel your manager deeply cares about you, and I appreciate that you called out how much we care about employees as we scale, because it's absolutely true. To your advice, I promise that won't change as we scale and grow. And on life-work fit, Laura Parrott is leading some really wonderful work with the Energy Project that I think will really help us move the needle on life-work integration next year, keep your eye on her work there to keep us honest on how it's working and evolving. Thanks as ever for the feedback and for all you do to help the company grow! -Katie
