HubSpot Work Experiences

Great opportunities to learn, limited chances to lead
Software Engineer • Current Employee
Cambridge, Massachusetts, United States
May 30, 2011
Pros: Ping-pong, foosball in the lunchroom, slushies, free food, and beer are just some of the great perks in the office. The atmosphere is young and full of energy. You'll never find a dull moment at HubSpot.
Cons: The energetic, young atmosphere can bring about a lack of focus and a scattered feel to the business. The flat organization can leave few chances for newer employees to become technical leads.

Pros: Lots of brainwashing to make you think HubSpot is so wonderful.
Cons: People are "gone" overnight.
Haskell churns you out, burns you out, before kicking you out of the door.
Have a read of Disrupted by Dan Lyons to get a sense of its infamous "Churn and Burn" model.
