      Pros

      This is my first job out of college and I absolutely love it here. I work on challenging problems and often lead systems design on these projects. The people I work with are brilliant and I learn a ton from them. Working in BET I also get to learn a lot about how our business runs and how we're helping it grow. This is not something I expected when I joined, but has been an unanticipated benefit. Beyond the work itself, HubSpot is a great place to be. The benefits are fantastic and the company really cares about its employees

      Cons

      A lot of growing pains that I'm sure many companies experience. It often feels very siloed between departments and cross functional projects can be extremely difficult. The level of politics within the company as a whole has risen during my time here and sometimes it feels like we're doing things to placate peoples egos rather than move the company in the right direction. But these are exceptions rather than the rule. It also feels like we love starting big new initiatives and then abandoning them without notice after about a month. We should have more follow through or be more transparent about our focuses changing.

      Thanks for the review and for helping BET grow and scale. I agree with you that we sometimes abandon things before truly understanding if they work or not, but I'm really bummed to hear that you think the politics have risen during your time here--that's something we need to actively manage against in my opinion. Couldn't agree more that our strength is in our people and culture, so I promise we'll continue to be vigilant there as we grow and scale. Thanks for taking the time to write this up, and for helping HubSpot and our systems scale and grow. Sincerely, 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.
