Pros
Good internal tools. No Ops.
Cons
Watch the movie “the Internship” and you’ll get a sense of what HubSpot is marketing itself as. It’s a disgusting systematic tactics to exploit the blooming tech industry with an over-saturation of inexperienced young talented people trying to get their foot in the tech scene. HubSpot shamelessly markets itself as a shiny big tech firm when all of its benefits are only for PR stunt. You need to be the top 5% - 10% to be able to use the “Unlimited holidays”, it’s not for everyone. The gym membership reimbursement is a prepaid MasterCard that expires after 3 months and you cannot get cash out of that card. HubSpot is actually a sweatshop in disguise. HubSpot’s JIRA tickets are measured in minutes, and you see tickets estimated for only 15 minutes! You are expected to deliver a task, including find the issue, do the a code change, finish your code review, and deploy to QA and test it, and deploy it production. You then spend a few minutes logging on the ticket saying that you spend 25 minutes doing the task, because you didn’t want to look bad claiming the entire task takes you twice as long. The entire system is designed to be a ruthless grind to exploit every penny out of their engineers. Any other company would have a much better work-life balance.
