Pros

Good for remote work, talented colleagues. Onboarding team will prepare you well!

Cons

I was so excited when I joined Hubspot only to find out after less than a year the company couldn’t care less of losing “junior” sales representatives neither senior ones. Consider very carefully joining, and research well what team and market you’d be covering. My personal experience was disappointing; I left after less than a year due to lack of empathy from manager after reporting bully behaviour and breach of policies of another senior GS (Account Executive). Honestly, I don’t tolerate being bullied and I couldn’t work anymore in a company that treats employees based on their title and their quota achievement. If you’re senior AE bringing tons of money and crushing quota , the rules and polices won’t apply to you. Meaning you’d be able to steal accounts, bully others, and make your ego shine. This toxic environment is driving great talent and honest people away. So if I were you, I would look elsewhere!

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.
