HubSpot Reviews

Pros

- HubSpot is one of the most transparent companies I have ever worked for and I've never seen that reflect in a negative light - Metrics for promotion and progression are performance-based to eliminate any kind of uncertainty - Everyone is friendly, welcoming and always willing to help a fellow HubSpotter!

Cons

- none that I can really think of at this time!

Pros

You'll love the people you work with, or at least I do in my department. It's pretty hard to get into HubSpot, but once you're through, you'd see why. The calibre of the people here (smart, helpful, driven, etc) is pretty outstanding, and it challenges you to bring your best as well. There's a lot of openness & transparency, and it's a place where employees are empowered. Our employee perks are pretty amazing... too!

Cons

I wouldn't say this is a con per se, but because there's so much of a start-up culture, and new things are happening all the time, sometimes it does feel like you're building the plane as you fly. Great if you like spontaneity, but if you're the sort that needs structure and defined guidelines, you do need to get use to it

Pros

Great product, talented and kind people, the career progression system is fair and objective. It is an incredible opportunity to work for a company where people try their best constantly; being surrounded by people who are driven and want to be remarkable is priceless as you always feel motivated.

Cons

Even though the training is great and well planned, it requires extra effort to get used to the amount of acronyms in the company

Pros

HubSpot has always made me feel welcome and included right from the very first interview I had with them. Joining the company has just shown how much effort has been put in to ensure this is an inclusive and accepting workplace. From the trust the company puts in their employees to the amazing benefits, I could not ask for a better place to work at.

Cons

There could be more improvements made around career growth.

Advice to Management

To put more emphasis on helping employees with career growth, perhaps with workshops or a dedicated mentoring program.

Pros

Freedom to work. Very Diverse Open Atmosphere Highly encouraging environment Cannot say enough about this place.

Cons

I have none. In sales there are targets and pressure bit that's the same in any sales role.

Advice to Management

Keep it up!

Pros

- the people - I don't know how they do it but they seem to hire genuinely nice and smart people - opportunities for growth - help and advice from management - work life balance - great parents programme - massive focus on culture - transparency

Cons

- we can be quite Cambridge focussed but this is starting to change - salary/compensation for some service roles can be low

Advice to Management

Kepp doimg what youre doing, I've seen the company go from strength to strength over the past 2 years since I joined.

Pros

Our engineering org gets the important stuff right. It's built around small, autonomous teams with a big mission that move fast and iterate. There is very little top-down anything, each team determines their own destiny.

Cons

As we've grown, we've added more and more engineering teams that have narrower and narrower scope. We try to make sure each team has a huge mountain to attack, but for some teams it can feel like you don't have the opportunity to make a massive impact on the business anymore.

Pros

- Great like-minded folks around - Leadership is transparent about in and out of the company - Great vacation and health benefits - Autonomy at it's best - Employees wellness is actually well looked after - There's never enough to learn it all - you cannot stop learning at Hubspot

Cons

- Need more core growth roles in APAC - Should involve individual contributor roles into decision making; esp when those teams are small / just individuals and spread across the globe

Advice to Management

- Keep up the great work
