Process
I had a call with the recruiter. She reached out on LinkedIn and asked me to set up a call.
The call was late, and she proceeded to discuss total compensation, stating it would be low.
She refused to discuss any position details. Then, she provided compensation information for my level.
When I asked whether the company stock was public or private, she had difficulty answering. After I asked her to clarify, she rudely told me I could Google it. I'm not sure why any decent candidate would continue.
Questions
Are you okay with X base pay and Y stock? You can Google if the company is public or private.

HubSpot Work Experiences
- 4.0Wouldn’t recommend for women/minoritiesSoftware Engineer • Former EmployeeCambridge, Massachusetts, United StatesMarch 26, 2020Pros: Flexible work environment, interesting technical challenges, and great mentorship opportunities.Cons: Needs a lot more diversity, inclusion, and belonging work. Lacks transparency in compensation and pays way below the market rate. Small 401K match. Undervalues employees.
- 5.0Remote Work, Cultish ManagementSoftware Engineer • Former EmployeeOctober 21, 2021Pros: - Relaxed work environment - Offers fully remote/flex working schedule as soon as you startCons: - Uphill battle against Salesforce. - Upper management can feel a bit cultish (saying "we're a number 1 workplace" on loop).
- 1.0Scrambling, No LearningSoftware Engineer • Former EmployeeBoston, Massachusetts, United StatesDecember 3, 2023Pros: I do not have any.Cons: It feels like the company grew way too fast, and everyone is scrambling to try and figure things out. I felt like just a number there because there are so many people. Lots of inexperienced managers and directors. Lots of software parts are abstracted away from the engineer, so it's not a good place to learn how things actually work. The company is great at feel-good marketing internally, but the reality is very different.
