Pros

I’ve had a great experience at Hibu- you get real career growth opportunities, top‑tier training, and a culture that supports you from day one. I came in with very little sales experience. The training is practical and high quality, and the coaching you receive makes a measurable difference in performance. Within my first year, I earned two promotions because the development path is clear, structured, and backed by leaders who actually invest in you. If you want a company where you can learn continuously, have true work life balance, and work with people who want you to succeed, Hibu is a strong choice!!

Cons

The digital marketing space is a lot upfront, but it pays off fast once you get into your rhythm!

Bush league company, no structure at all

Pros

autonomy, product is seemingly good

Cons

Overall a terrible sales org, commission structure is nonsense and very low percent of reps are on the high tier, including reps that are top performers being on the mid or low tier commission. You are responsible for prospecting, closing, and account management so job gets harder the longer you are there. Force you into long meetings so the VP can show everyone Christopher Voss masterclass videos that are irrelevant. Sales contests where the reward is literally 5 dollars. Training is completely disconnected from how the job actually is, even down to the tech stack they teach you. Sales planning does nothing and does not provide any new leads or any sales tools that work. They do not even have a list of discovery questions to provide you. No one uses any of their provided tech stack you just have to figure out your own processes with no support. Very low base salary which they will lower if you get put on PIP. Extremely unstructured PIP program with no concrete numbers or explanation for how to get off of PIP. Extreme favoritism at the managerial level.
