HubSpot Program Manager reviews

The company went though major leadership changes, which is changing the company into something I don’t recognize anymore. I’ve been here for a long time and I’m saddened to see a loss in transparency especially in the lead up to the layoffs. The new CEO and CCO are bringing a flavor of tech culture that includes toxic positivity, a lack of transparency and no actual strategy, just buzzwords. At every level it feels like no one understands what’s going on after the layoffs. We were promised clarity about the layoffs but all we got is a vague pep talk in the follow up company meeting. It’s nice that the leadership did something to make the layoffs bearable for the impacted. Nonetheless, the management team made a huge miscalculation and grew the company too quickly and they’re the one who ultimately carry the responsibility, yet the employees are actually answering for it. After the layoffs, the CTO quick pivoted all his external LinkedIn comms to AI and chatGPT, so it quickly became clear that the care they had for their employees and the importance given to the culture code was just a fad. So yes, great that you have people severance and they got to keep their laptops, but otherwise you went on business as usual. It’s not a place I would recommend coming to if you’re joining for the culture because that culture is slowly becoming history.
