HubSpot reviews

The culture is genuinely bad at HubSpot. They’ve intentionally modeled their company culture after SpaceX and Amazon, which are notoriously controversial places to work, and it shows. There are a few great managers and team members, but overwhelmingly, there’s an extreme “sink or swim” mentality that focuses solely on numbers and increased shareholder revenue instead of meaningful and thoughtful business decisions. Engineers are tracked and reviewed on how many lines of code they write, not by the quality or effectiveness of the code, which I think is indicative of the broader issues.

- High stress (I know too many people who have taken a LOA for mental health or even physical symptoms related to stress) - The AI focus often feels extreme and unnecessary (AI for the sake of AI) - Startups seem to be beating the product in a lot of places Overall feels like it's turning into a big, clunky, grinding machine instead of the nimble, collaborative innovator it once was.
