Pros

There was lots of free stuff, I guess.

Cons

When people tell you this place is a cult, they aren't kidding. It's a glorified adware company that's convinced it's changing the world.

Everyone is a ladder-climbing, two-faced snake who will rat you out to management the second you aren't acting "hubspotty" (a word they actually regularly use, which at its core means showing up to work smiling and happy to take whatever they give you).

They consistently underpay their support workers and, when tasked with brutal overtime, compensate them with pizza. They act like they care about progressive issues, but don't actually care about anything other than the bottom line; it's all a PR stunt.

Advice to Management

Stop kidding yourselves.
