Pros

HubSpot is great at supporting a healthy work/life balance. They're very thoughtful when it comes to putting in place programs that improve employee quality of life. The people are amazingly smart and it's great to learn new things all the time.

Cons

Engineering pay is a little bit low for industry standards at big tech companies. I started during COVID and it feels like I still haven't quite cracked the shell of the larger org. I think that is more a product of being fully remote and never meeting teammates vs something HubSpot specific, but I do feel rather detached from my team.

Pros

There's never a dull moment at work; there's always something new cooking around the corner, and we move quite fast. I love all the autonomy and support I get to try new things and take on large, vague projects. I'm constantly learning, and if something isn't working out or I've stopped learning, switching teams is easy and even encouraged (I've been on 5 teams, and have tried out tech leadership as well as individual contributor roles). My peers support me, and I feel like they also care a lot about the team and our success. There's physiological safety to voice your opinions and try out new things, even if you're wrong and you fail. There are a few teams where this is not true, but you can easily move off or avoid them altogether by asking around. There is a lot of emphasis placed on mental health, and taking the time you need to live your life as well as work, which is wonderful. Primary and secondary parental leave are both now 4 months, which is incredible!

Cons

There exist teams where there isn't physiological safety and they seem to operate contradictory to the HubSpot way. While they are far and few, I imagine if you're placed here as a new hire, you would have a very different experience at HubSpot, which is saddening.

Hi there, sorry for the delay on my end, and thanks for being a senior software engineer at HubSpot! I love that you've moved around and felt encouraged to do so, and I love that you called out our parental leave change-thanks for calling that out! Helping people grow AND helping their families grow is mission critical to all we do. I think your point that psych safety has to exist on every team for it to really work is a good one, particularly as we scale-thank you for calling it out and for all your hard work at HubSpot, it's sincerely appreciated. -Katie
