Pros

-huge degree of autonomy over your work. Employees are given a lot of latitude to tackle meaty challenges across the business and drive results. Given how quickly we're growing there's plenty of opportunity to make an impact -unlimited flexibility. This isn't a face-time culture, and employees are encouraged to find a schedule that works with their life -benefits are amazing. The health insurance offers great coverage, $5K annual tuition reimbursement for continuing education, and every employee is offered restricted stock as part of their compensation package -incredibly smart, driven, motivated people who constantly inspire their peers to do their best work

Cons

-feeling some growing pains that are totally characteristic of a scale-up: equipping front line managers with the tools and skills they need to successfully manage their teams, becoming more globally focused

Thanks for the thorough review, and for helping lead our team as we grow and scale. I love that you called out the health insurance and RSUs--sometimes a lot of focus goes on our perks, and our core benefits are truly amazing. Couldn't agree more on some of the growing pains side of things, we have some work to do, but we are getting there and will be talking more about this from DubSpot this week. Thanks for the review and for leading us into the next chapter in HubSpot's success! -Katie

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.
