The hyperlink in the emails I send in campaigns are really long and suspicious looking. The link should appear as it does in the html view in the edit window. From a cyber security stand point I would advice my staff to not click on these types of links as they look very suspicious.

I understand this is actually a function of a security measure and analytics tool on hubspot’s end. In order to gather the click information and to limit spam click data in the analytics hubspot add a javascript redirect to the links in your email. But perhaps you could add vanity url capabilities instead. More and more businesses will be training staff on cyber security awareness and when they hover over links like this hubspot users may see a drop in clicks.
