The HubSpot Culture Code Deck - The OS that powers HubSpot. Shared with love.

Whenever I have the chance to talk to college students about how to pick their first company, I always tell them to talk to current employees so they can sift through the noise and find companies that truly walk-the-walk. So many companies say their culture is great, but living and breathing that promise is a whole different ballgame. Why do I know how important that is? Because I am so privileged to work at a company that leads by that example. I'll never be able to settle for less at this point. The culture code is so feel good, but even better: it's not fluff. It's the essence of HubSpot. 3.5 years into my time here and I feel more energized every day. I hope other companies can learn from this deck, and I hope it teaches individuals to never settle in their pursuit for a company that not only makes them proud as an employee but as a person!

So, many in the corresponding thread on Hacker News have criticized HubSpot's culture because of your company's handling of Dan Lyons and his book. I obtained the FBI's redacted report following its investigation into your company. The full PDF is available here: https://www.samueljscott.com/201... HubSpot has always stated that the company believes in transparency. But HubSpot has never directly and specifically addressed the serious, material allegations in Lyons' book and has never disclosed exactly what the mentioned executives — among others — may have done regarding his book. So, I ask you: Will HubSpot grant me, for my column for The Drum, a one-hour interview with you, Brian Halligan, and the chair of your board of directors? Completely recorded and on the record and with nothing off-limits.

I'm a big fan @dharmesh

Big fan of Hubspot's product and culture (and a customer as well). Thanks for sharing @dharmesh, looking forward to reading.

So, Hubspot is a culture-first company and we love it for the ingenuity, affection and care it provides to its employees and customers. I loved reading your culture code and feel inspired to build my own. "Great culture attracts great people that build great products and services."

Love this product. Looks really cool, and could definitely come in handy and grow brands of all kinds!!

Great
