Cons

They say they're inclusive. They're 100% NOT. If you're on the far left politically you'll love it here. They'll continue to feed you what you want to hear and you won't have to think about the deeper layer of ANY of your views. It'll be very predictable. Pride Month, Black History (I'll get to more of that), and now out of state abortions funded by the company (I wonder what other incentives are being left out for that to be funded...) If you're on the right you'll hate it here unless you're aware of how this happens at many tech companies already and you just want to live with it, or if you want to be a voice on the inside since the loudest here is all the radical left... basically everyone stays silent and when there's a hint of they're not radically left they'll ping each other one on one. I've done it with colleagues myself. If you're in the middle and like to rationally look at each issue that comes up on a case by case basis (and not just side with how the Dem. or Rep. party would view it) then you'll be able to tolerate the rare moments when the left gets it right on some issues like racial biases but will also hate it here on many. It's all virtue signaling and painful even when you cry out. Why do they not even really care about race unless it's a leftist virtue signal? See below. EXAMPLE: BODILY AUTONOMY - When the C19 was all happening HubSpot SENT OUT A MANDATE for all employees to get the sh0t EVEN IF YOU'RE 100% REMOTE. And we had like a few weeks to do it with the timeline of both sh0ts and when they said we had to be fully V*ccin8ted by. - Many employees, including black employees who HubSpot showed love to during "BLM season" mentioned the racial history on healthcare and it didn't matter. Get it, get a religious exemption, a medical exemption, or leave the company. - NOW -- With roe v wade reversed, in record time (just a few business days) there's already a public linkedin post on bodily autonomy and how this deeply saddens Chief People Officer Katie Burke and emails in our inboxes on how they're giving $2500 for employees to get out of state abortions. Katie Burke was not visibly deeply saddened when they were forcing everyone to decide between their bodily autonomy or their jobs. I hope one day this company and this nation will not just have echo chambers of left and right wing politics that control all the decision making with little expansive thought. It gets especially crazy on the radical left where it overtakes everything just like I'm experiencing in this company like never before.

Pros

Great people, everyone is so understanding and supportive. Culture is fun and energizing, people seem happy to be here. There's lots of ways to get involved outside of your day job. Awesome benefits and flexibility - love the remote first work environment, week of rest, open PTO, etc. Robust tech stack - lots of tools available for me to do my job.

Cons

Experiencing some growing pains but leadership seems receptive to feedback on it.

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.
