Pros

Absolutely amazing team and organization. Matterport is the epitome of a startup and comes with all the fun stuff that goes with it. They're amazingly helpful and supportive in their culture, the people are amazing, and they have a good (realistic) idea of where they're headed in the future - which is very bright for Matterport.

Cons

Processes and Procedures needs work. Operationally, the company needs to improve and scale accordingly, but that's the same for most startups. Everything is new and there will be plenty of learns.

Glass Ceiling in Full Effect

Pros

Matterport is growing fast in a difficult economy and adjusting focus quickly to do so.

Cons

For women it can be a complete career stall with a glass ceiling between middle management and leadership. All members of the board are men. 14 of the 15 people in C suite or VP positions are men. Not surprisingly, the one woman in that group is head of HR. They’ve done a ton of leadership hiring in the last year and missed every opportunity to address this. If you are looking for an organization that promotes and hires women equally, this isn’t the place for you.

Executive leadership is ruining Matterport

Pros

The individual contributors and many of the middle managers are hard working, smart people. The product (SaaS and hardware is impressive). The pay is good and the healthcare benefits are excellent. Reasonable place to get a nice title and reasonable pay while you look for a new job.

Cons

Matterport's C-level leadership is inept and immature, and therefore passively destructive to the future of the company. The CEO doesn't believe in planning more than a quarter at a time, and even then he spontaneously re-prioritizes the not-quite finalized plans whenever he sees something shiny on the horizon. The executive leadership team is never in alignment, but they all pretend they are in team meetings. Getting them to commit to OKRs or a roadmap is like herding feral cats. The strategy to increase revenue relies on laying off 25-30% of the company annually. By contrast, in 2021 the CEO was paid $157.9 million, which is more than the $136.1 million company revenue generated, according to an article published on 24/7 Wall Street on May 5, 2023. This is not a healthy company with a bright future, or really any future at all.
