Pros

Tons of opportunities to grow outside of your day-to-day role. Autonomy to innovate, create and shape your role while ensuring you create a schedule and work-life fit that works best for you. The people work hard, are helpful, empathetic and kind. Our founders truly make it feel like we are growing a business together and the transparency and access to information is unparalleled

Cons

The company grows quickly, re-org happens and it's harder to career path and see yourself moving up into management roles. Would like to see more proactive conversations around how to move internally.

Thanks so much for the review and for being a program manager at HubSpot! I agree completely on the push for DI&B more broadly and that all of us should continue to encourage folks to go. I also echo your sentiments about our founders, and love that you see empathy and kindness in your peers. On internal mobility, we are working a lot on a skill development program that really helps employees develop skills at their own pace that mirror internal needs and roles, so expect more from us there, thanks for the feedback and for helping HubSpot grow! -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.
