Pros

The product is great. Their position in the marketplace is equally great.

Cons

Your map is headquartered in Australia. The US business is run like an Australian company, so naturally there are quite a few disconnects. Compensation is below market rate, benefits are the same way. Management reports through Australia and can’t really get anything done w/ out their approval. Internal processes and technologies are dated and cumbersome and it seems like the company is constantly getting in its own way.

Thanks for taking the time to post your review; we always appreciate the feedback whether it is through Glassdoor, our Quarterly Pulse Surveys or our Monthly Business Updates. Nearmap was founded in Perth, Western Australia, by Stuart Nixon in 2008, and since then, we have significantly grown our customer base across Australia, New Zealand and North America. Our heritage will always be Australian, however we recognize the need to support our growth in North America and are reviewing how to better support the team and our customers there. We won't get it right all the time, but we are very committed to our customers and making Nearmap a great place to work. We are a work in progress :)

Pros

I had great autonomy to work with my customers and present my customer plans and renewal plans to upper leadership. Low to no interference most of the time.

Cons

I didn't get to travel as much as I wanted.

Pros

Excellent product, Lehi, UT staff, technical support

Cons

Redundant leadership, never know who’s in charge. Redundant processes, constant shifts in focus. Limited investment outside of insurance vertical. “Grow at all costs” strategy from years past coming back to bite org. Too many cooks in the kitchen. No legitimate mechanism for front-line sales to engage with senior leadership.
