Pros

Leadership is very open to feedback and willing to make changes when necessary Fully remote Global culture with hardworking, passionate team Big client names and consistent work Leadership has your back against any unfortunate client situations Consistent recognition of a job well done

Cons

I would say for any smaller company, there are the typical growing pains. We move quick and processes are always being adjusted to manage growth. I would say you need to be open and willing to participate in those changes. Team is fully remote and global so you also need to be able to work comfortably with the team/clients in different time zones.

Pros

Projects are interesting and challenging. I would agree with the good reviews before 2022, but things have changed a lot since. Positive and newer reviews appear to be created by chatgpt.

Cons

The consultant role is an absolute joke. No one in leadership (or in the team) is truly a Hubspot Expert. How can you claim you are hubspot experts but somehow do not have experts on the team? Leadership is PM centric. You can understand how this is problematic, since there is lack of knowledge on what should happen, as well as best practices on the top. It wouldn't be such an issue if they were humble enough to look for actual experts to improve the processes. Layoffs happened constantly and there is no job security. Also on the same realm, they hired extremely slow, generating constant over-burn on the team. Also do not trust their claim that average tenure is 1.7 years (even though this number is still pretty low). This does not take into account all the freelancers that come and go, and also all the international employees that might not be on linkedin. Internal politics is also a huge issue. They create a culture where the different roles in delivery (consultants, PMs and devs) are constantly fighting over who caused the issue. Leadership will jump to conclusions and blame someone. Leadership will be nice about it, but still there's this underlying sense that you messed up, which is infuriating when the issue wasn't properly understood by them. In terms of benefits they offer the basic ones which is PTO, 5 sick days and insurance (if you are in the US). For international employees the only benefits are the PTO and sick days. Getting sick can become an inconvenience, so I would sometimes have to work while sick. You are expected to speak up, but only if it doesn’t contradict leadership. Leadership can also get very micromanagy. Salaries are also not what are depicted here. They range from 1500-4000 a month, which is why they need to hire overseas. Overall I doubt Origin will continue hiring in the US and will continue to look for talent overseas, which is fine if it was truly for the right reasons, not because you want to save some bucks. For international people it is a good way to enter the US market.
