Pros

great product and awesome conversion tracking

Cons

poor management and enablement; the ramp increases rapidly in regards to quota attainment, lots of tribal knowledge, and ultimately there is a lack of clear expectations

Thanks for sharing your feedback. We hear your concerns around enablement, management, and clarity during ramp. We know how important it is to have the right support and clear expectations, especially early on. That’s why we have dedicated Ramp Managers within the Sales org whose focus is to help new reps ramp effectively and feel confident in their path to quota attainment. If you’re finding the learning curve steep or expectations unclear, we strongly encourage connecting with your manager or a Ramp Manager to talk through any blockers and make sure you’re set up for success. Thanks again for your feedback and for everything you’re doing at HubSpot. – The Sales Leadership Team

Pros

The teams you work with are phenomenal. The knowledge combination between an internal customer facing teams, engineering product development teams, and Sales are unmatched.

Cons

Excessive use of PIPs to oust employees after multiple high revenue launches, with no explanation, actual documentation, or factual data. Reviews have been adjusted to allow for terminations post pre-approved leaves. Salaries are a joke. You are always in a cover yourself mode 24/7. Management reviews are consistently a 2 or 3 out of 5 no matter what. If a team decides you aren’t in the group, management will put you on a “unofficial” PIP without telling you, in order to surprise you at a later date. Even if they are unfounded. Beware of possibility of negative backlash post launches. They will feel the need to assign blame ( such as for timelines or issues related to bugs). Regardless of performance or level of involvement. This is an enormous company with many large paths for career advancement. But micro management is rampant, leaving little room for doing the daily expectations of your actual role. This degrades your opportunities for career advancement.
