Pros

Nearmap has a great product, although others in the space are catching up

Cons

Poor management, poor communication around expectations. Acquired by private equity and let a ton of people go with no notice. Really disrespectful practices.

Pros

I really enjoy the team I work with since we have a lot of autonomy and everyday I can learn something new.

Cons

The company invests very little in their employees : 1.) You have to learn a lot on your own if you want to succeed. Tricky to move up as well since there is a lack of opportunities in certain departments. 2.) Very little support for remote workers (almost the entire US team is still remote due to Covid and there hasn't been anything in place to help) 3.) Holidays - don't expect anything. For example, last Christmas we didn't get anything. Even though Nearmap did really well during Covid and is a public company, our salaries still got reduced by 20% for 6 months. 4.) No 401K or any retirement assistance or match in the US just a stock option 5.) Limited resources even though we're a public company

Thanks for sharing your thoughts and advice. Over the years we have made significant investments in our people and will continue to look for new opportunities. We have an open-door policy and one of our values is "tell it", so if you have any ideas, please share them! You can do this directly with your manager, any member of the executive team or through our quarterly pulse survey.

Pros

Excellent product, gaining some real traction in the U.S market against current competitors. Becoming seen as the cost effective alternative with many pros against the current market leader for many small/medium enterprises. Expanding image coverage gaining new interest daily from untapped markets.

Cons

Lack of technical support team in the U.S as its all out of Australia for now. This is not a huge con but as the U.S operations continues to grow at its rapid pace then it would be wise for them to invest in a technical support team here.

Thank you for taking the time to write this review, we are sorry that your experience with Nearmap has you feeling this way and doubting the company that you work for. We understand that we’re not perfect, however we strive to be a place where employees enjoy working and are proud of where we’re headed. We make every effort to be transparent in the direction of our organization through our company-wide standup. There is a clear statement of our long-term strategy and the company’s quarterly priorities are visible on the Kanban board and re-iterated at the standup. There’s a learning effort on our part as we navigate through growth and changes and the new values are reflective of our efforts to continually improve as an organization. We appreciate your feedback to help guide us along the way and encourage you to reach out to a member of HR or the executive team.
