Pros

Great people to work with.

Fantastic offices and amenities.

Autonomy to work on projects I think will positively impact the company.

Amazing parties and yearly conference.

Top-of-the-line tech.

Truly believes in unlimited vacation (if one gets their work done).

In 2016, I took 20 days vacation with less than 2 years of service.

Given time to explore different solutions, trusted to find the best.

Everyone is pleasant, which is a first for me after 10 years in the Boston tech industry.

C-level executives are available to talk.

Cons

Not everyone is a good fit. People can join and leave quickly.

Finding a support structure is very important for when times get tough. HubSpot is a 'drink the kool-aid' company. The company skews very young, but is improving.

Advice to Management

Keep growing. Keep visible. It's magical to be sitting at my desk and see the CEO or CTO walk by.
