Pros

I can confidently say that all the great things that you read about HubSpot are indeed true. I've been at HubSpot less than a year, but long enough to be able to get the entire experience (post new-hire honeymoon phase). 1. The best part about HubSpot are the people. HubSpot puts immense weight during the interview process to hire people that are smart, driven, and most importantly kind. I've made some great... relationships during the time I've been here, and it makes work that much more enjoyable. Everyone here is motivated to succeed and advance their careers, and it fosters an exciting environment. 2. Company values. HubSpot is a company looking to be profitable like all others, but it strives to do so in partnership with its customers. You've most likely heard all about the inbound methodology, but HubSpot truly does strive to do business holistically and in a way that makes the world a better place. This not only applies to the way HubSpot goes about business, but also the way it treats its employees. You work hard, but I've never worked somewhere that invests so much in individual growth as well as transparency. 3. Benefits and perks. Benefits are great compared to where I've worked in the past. The coffee is fantastic, snacks are good, and beer on tap is great. 4. Diversity, Inclusion, and Belonging. HubSpot puts soooo much into becoming a diverse and inclusive company, and strives to foster an environment of belonging. It admits that it's got some more work to do in this department, but it's truly steadfast in eventually becoming a leader in this category. I can go on and on about my experience at HubSpot. I can't genuinely say how grateful I am for the opportunity to work here.

Cons

I don't really consider this a con, but more of a disclaimer to potential applicants: Prepare to work hard. If you want to coast in an easy 9-5 then HubSpot is not for you. If you are coming from another industry, then prepare to put in even more hours learning the ropes and becoming familiar with tech, marketing, sales, and general business acumen. You can quickly become overwhelmed (especially in the beginning).... Every employee is here to grow and make a name for themselves, so if you don't give it 100%, you will be left in the dust. This isn't to say that the work-life balance is bad (it isn't). You just need to work hard and hit your metrics in order to succeed.

Advice to Management

Continue to invest in the pros I mentioned above. (I think you were planning on doing that anyway so don't stop!). Also, although the company is growing at a crazy pace, don't trade the startup feel and customer/employee centric values that you have in place of traditional corporate ones.

Pros

great benefits work culture is great

Cons

nothing to think of off the top of my head

Pros

HubSpot is an incredible place to work. It is crammed full of smart people who are entrusted and enabled to do their jobs. I have huge autonomy and flexibility in my sales role. The product, marketing and operation teams are second to none. Paid very well.

Cons

A lot to learn fast, not all sales segments equal

Advice to Management

Keep pivoting towards international, there is supreme director talent in EMEA. Consider lowering the target for the small biz teams (I'm not on it btw)

Pros

The People you work with Flexibility Benefits Remuneration

Cons

Hard to think about any.

Pros

True autonomy to the product teams. No management getting in the way of getting stuff done. All the engineers seem to be both incredibly talented, and humble. Which can be a tough combo to find. Always opportunities to learn from your peers through tech talks, epic week, etc.

Cons

Not a con to most people, but Hubspot gives you a bunch of freedom when you join. Those who don't know how to use it, or need a lot more structure, could struggle with it.

Advice to Management

Keep doing what you're doing. Seriously, great place to work.

Pros

HubSpot really cares about its employees and is a great company to work for. There are great company perks - tons of food, a gym, and amazing work culture! You get a great training for the support position and there is constant support/resources available if you have any questions throughout the day or on the job when getting started. Everyone is very friendly and willing to help!

Cons

The pay is not great for the amount of technical work we do. Also, the job can get very stressful when dealing with a lot of difficult cases at once. There is less flexibility with Support and a tough late schedule for the first few months.
