Pros

The underlining business model is cool and has potential and I think I believe in the tech. I get paid well and I like a few of my colleagues. Met the new CEO and he has a PHD.

Cons

Met the new CEO who has a PHD, just not in anything relevant to running the nearmap business. Not impressive. For potential candidates, this would be a risky move. Leadership is flaking out by the day. Don't give up a solid role thinking you are coming to work with tech players wwho know what they are doing.

Pros

Nothing.. Maybe the medical benefits?

Cons

Struggling company, poor management, confused business direction.. Office politics are on par with bigger companies, too much sucking up here. The board is trying to grow too fast (with upper and middle management not standing up to them) and layoffs occur regularly… With a ton of casualties. Pressure is huge and expectations not realistic. You're seen as a "goal" rather than a person.. nearmap doesn't have a competitive advantage in the Silicon Valley technology market space, you're not fooling anyone that knows this industry. With no exit strategy in sight, consider stepping down and let more competent individuals attempt to clean up your mess...

Pros

- Good people. No bad eggs , bad attitudes - Good benefits package

Cons

Where to start.... 1. US is a sinking ship. No leadership in place. Have to go to Australia for everything, and the Australians no zero about how to sell in the US 2. Product is simply not good enough. US sales team sells a stripped down version of the product they sell in Australia. Prospects have no interest in spending hundreds of thousands of dollars on imagery they can already get for free in the states. 3. Have never seen so much turnover at a company 4. Having to go to Australia for EVERYTHING you need, and waiting a day if not more for an answer to a simple question 5. You will not make any commission. 6. Their average deal size in US is 2k a YEAR
