      Amazingly great place to work - Anonymous employee HubSpot Employee Review

      Pros

      You've got the freedom to chart your own course and decide how you want to grow, either in your role or in a new one within the company. Freedom, to an incredible extent, to choose when, where, and how you'll get your work done (using good judgment, naturally). Freedom to be yourself, which I particularly appreciate after some of the more oppressive places I've worked. Play to your strengths and find a way to make your strengths benefit your team and the company, and you'll love going to work every day.

      Cons

      This much freedom isn't everyone's cup of tea. You do need to be able to chart your own course and define what success means to you. Huge progress has been made in helping employees grow and learn as they take on new roles, but you still do have to do a lot of the heavy lifting yourself. But that's the tradeoff of a place that treats you like an adult -- you have to actually act like an adult and make things happen. It's a price I'm quite willing to pay.

      I think your feedback on the tradeoff between autonomy and responsibility is incredibly insightful--over time, I'd love for us to give people a few stronger tools in the space, but I agree with you that it's exciting that we truly give people tickets to write their own adventure at HubSpot. I also think you're right that autonomy isn't the best fit for everyone, so thanks for taking the time to write this up. Regarding women on board, I love the two women currently on our board, and feel good about the progress we've made on women in leadership positions, but I agree we still have work to do--would love your thoughts and suggestions on how we can do better. Thank you for your thoughtful write-up and for your hard work at HubSpot, we're so grateful you've spent more than five years with us and hope your journey here is just beginning! -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.
