Pros

- I have full autonomy in my role to manage my hours how I see fit. As long as I am achieving the metrics that company is set for me, they do not care when I am online or how many hours I work.

Cons

- Metrics change frequently and you must pivot fast. - Recent push to have CSMs on more and more calls with customers. Starting to feel like I don't have the time for "deep work" -- as in having the time to think strategically about my book of business.

Thanks for taking the time to share your experience. It’s great to hear that you value the autonomy and flexibility in how you manage your work. We also hear your feedback on the increase in customer calls. As we evolve how we support customers, we know it’s important that CSMs still have protected time for strategic work. We’re always reviewing how we can help teams manage this balance more effectively so you can focus on what drives the most impact for your book of business. Thanks again for all that you do for our customers and for HubSpot.

Pros

The teams you work with are phenomenal. The knowledge combination between an internal customer facing teams, engineering product development teams, and Sales are unmatched.

Cons

Excessive use of PIPs to oust employees after multiple high revenue launches, with no explanation, actual documentation, or factual data. Reviews have been adjusted to allow for terminations post pre-approved leaves. Salaries are a joke. You are always in a cover yourself mode 24/7. Management reviews are consistently a 2 or 3 out of 5 no matter what. If a team decides you aren’t in the group, management will put you on a “unofficial” PIP without telling you, in order to surprise you at a later date. Even if they are unfounded. Beware of possibility of negative backlash post launches. They will feel the need to assign blame ( such as for timelines or issues related to bugs). Regardless of performance or level of involvement. This is an enormous company with many large paths for career advancement. But micro management is rampant, leaving little room for doing the daily expectations of your actual role. This degrades your opportunities for career advancement.
