Vantaggi
I have worked in the Boston high tech scene for over two decades, including being part of multiple startups, and have never been at a company like HubSpot. What makes HubSpot different really starts from the culture. We strive to be true to the HubSpot Culture Code (www.culturecode.com), even though we acknowledge it is aspirational. The culture really makes the place remarkable including a tremendous focus on autonomy and transparency; every individual has the opportunity to move the needle at the company. The other thing that is incredible is the audacity and desires of the company. We are not out to be just another company. We want to be a remarkable company in the Boston area and are not afraid to be very bold in the markets we go after. Every time I think I have come to grips with the magnitude of our goals I am surprised by another mountain behind that one.
Svantaggi
Particularly as an experienced person, coming into HubSpot can be a culture shock. You likely know the traditional playbook and, if you come into HubSpot and try to just use that playbook, you will fail. We aren't like most other places and the traditional playbooks won't work here. The key to succeed in coming to HubSpot is understanding how to take your experience and knowledge and fit it into our culture. Once you figure that out, and there can be some bumps and bruises along the way, you can thrive in ways you probably have never been able to before.
