Pros

The people you work with are really smart and helpful. Flexible remote work, although you are being tracked.

Cons

No PTO or benefits for employees outside USA. For a company whose success is largely driven by contractors, contractors aren't compensated nearly enough. There used to be an allowance for equipment but they removed it too. The CEO's view on productivity is twisted. He claims to be data driven, but when you present him with data like a 4 day workweek being more healthy and beneficial for employees, he is offended. In fact, it is this CEO that removed the already few contractor benefits in the first place. He is very out of touch. He treats people as metrics, not people. You are not defined by your impact but instead by how much work you can do in 40 hours. It is a corporate mindset, just remote. This is very obvious behavior of some of the team leads and executives also.

Dear professional, I'm very sorry you are not having the best experience working here. I want to thank you for your comment and let you know that while we know we still have much to improve, we do our best every day to ensure all our professionals feel welcome, supported, and happy working at Hubstaff. I would like to let you know that all our employees (not just from the US, but from any other country: we have employees in +12 countries) have a lot of benefits and perks. However, we don't offer them if you are a contractor. Still, we offer all our contractors the possibility of becoming employees if their countries present a stable situation. For that, we use an EOR (employer of record). So, if benefits such as PTO or other employee benefits are important to you, please talk with the HR department to analyze your situation. Best regards,

Pros

Everyone who works here is kind, professional, and very talented. The culture here is real, and people are very supportive of each other.

Cons

HR already does its best, but since the company is growing, I think we need more people to focus on HR stuff and not only getting recruiters.

Pros

NONE. I never got paid!!

Cons

Hubstaff is a scam and full of scammers!!! They freelanced me to do a task for $2,700. Then to get my money, I had to venmo them a $70 tax, $250 for a COT (cost of transaction fee - only used by scammers) and then, after I did the wire transfer, they said I had to pay a $500 Reflection fee for it to land in my bank. I refused.!!!
