Pros

Hubtype offers 100% remote work opportunities, which is a positive aspect for those seeking flexibility and the ability to work from anywhere. It offers technical jobs for young professionals, with a particular emphasis on fields like machine learning and software development. Portfolio of high-profile clients may serve as an exciting motivation for those just starting out in their careers. Overall, Hubtype could be a decent place for internships or entry-level roles, especially for those living in rural areas of Spain and unwilling to relocate to a larger city.

Cons

Their AI-based product might have been innovative a couple of years ago, but it no longer stands out in the rapidly advancing tech industry. The company seems to lack the experience and understanding necessary to manage large accounts effectively. The concept of customer loyalty appears to be poorly understood, resulting in missed opportunities for growth and long-term customer relationships. The absence of senior personnel and lack of mentorship within the company is a significant drawback. The lack of career growth opportunities essentially turns Hubtype into a stepping stone rather than a place to build a long-term career. The Human Resources department is completely off the mark. An obsession with frequent and often irrelevant employee surveys overshadows genuine employee concerns and feedback. The company's handling of sexual harassment and employee rights is poor. Hubtype lacks a clear commercial strategy. The marketing and HR departments are disproportionately large, while more critical departments are understaffed and take on random responsibilities. The lack of vision and strategic direction could ultimately lead to the company's downfall if not addressed promptly. Overall, Hubtype may not be the ideal choice for those seeking long-term career growth and a supportive work environment.

Pros

Team lunches- everyone eats lunch together everyday Cultural diversity- people from multiple countries Everyone is super friendly and welcoming! There's an office dog who is adorable but not disruptive Laid back and fun culture Management asks for and listens to feedback Individual contributions have a high impact- as an Intern I wasn't given busywork, I had a real project that was important to the team

Cons

Because it's multi-lingual, there are sometimes language barriers, and you can be unintentionally excluded from social conversations if your Spanish/Catalan isn't good enough. Granted if you're in Spain you should probably speak Spanish, but if you're still learning it can be a challenge. The management is often super busy and can't always take the time to help you, so you have to do your best to accommodate that. You won't be given a lot of guidance and there isn't always a process on how to do things, which means you need to be proactive and independent. The team is small and there aren't always enough people to get everything done
