HubSpot

• Very supportive manager that made onboarding smooth.
• Autonomy as an individual and as a team.
• Clear vision of product development and company mission.
• Feel very welcome in the team.
• Great flexibility in schedules and vacation.
• Great benefits and nice employee events, although I imagine it was much better pre-pandemic.
• Great transparency in leadership decisions, including product direction and compensation.
• Amazing tooling built around the tech stack to support product developers in 99% of tasks, which makes it easy for entry-level engineers like me.
• As much as possible, this is a relatively large tech company that is not "evil," so it feels good to work here from a personal values standpoint.

Hybrid work is here to stay, I get that, but it also feels like no one can be bothered to show up at the office, making it harder to connect and maintain a culture (other than the culture in chat rooms).

Stock compensation seems limited compared to what I've heard about other companies.

We need to do a better job of encouraging culture and socialization as we work from home, but also as we eventually return to the office on a more normalized status.
