Hire and Layoff ... repeat

Pros

Great health benefits and unlimited PTO

Cons

30% laid off in July 2023 after previous layoffs in the summer of 2022. Myself and many others were hired and laid off within less than a 12-month span because executive leadership has no idea how to run a company (ex: quarterly budget planning that takes half a year to complete). Don't make any long-term financial decisions based on your employment here.

Pros

- The people are generally very cool. - Technology is interesting and has a lot of potential. - Engineering org is talented and highly collaborative. - Decent work/life balance if you are interested in coasting. - Fairly diverse workplace (at the lower levels).

Cons

- Frequent layoffs! Instead of firing poor performers, Matterport has a huge round of layoffs every summer. This has happened for years. This results in a lot of low-performers doing very little all year until they're finally laid off. - Very little reason to perform at above and beyond. Since half the team is coasting until the next layoff, there's a real "do nothing" culture. - Leadership has a hard time sticking to a plan. The roadmap changes constantly and never seems settled. The company shifts gears too frequently to get anything done. Constantly chasing shiny objects. - Despite a lot of talk about being customer centric, priorities are rarely set to benefit the customer. - Not enough data-driven decisions. - Middle managers are all pretty weak. Only introduce more spin and confusion. This might be a symptom of the incomplete/inconsistent plans.
