      Pros

      AMAZING. COLLEAGUES. They are some of the smartest people I've ever met, and the most friendly and easy-going. Definitely the kind of people that you'd like to stay in touch and stay friends even after if and when leaving HubSpot. Good job recruiting the brightest people out there!

      Cons

      A LOT depends on your manager, which can be good and bad. Every manager manages their team differently, and that reflects on the flexibility of where/when/how you work sometimes regardless of how much you deliver. Also, not much of a con depending on some people, but there is a lack of teamwork in a day-to-day. Of course there are plenty of times when we reach out to others for help/guidance or confirming something, but most of the job is done alone.

      Thank you for the review and for helping our customers in Japan grow as we scale. I would agree with your push on ensuring we think global first--the objective for our growth is to create a really strong global culture but also to empower local traditions that help us give employees autonomy in each market to solve for our customers and prospects. We'll continue to innovate on the ground in Japan and look forward to working with you to make that happen and to visiting the team again in the near future--such a wonderful group of HubSpotters and the photos of your new space look wonderful! -Katie

      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.
