Hello Matterport (Former) Employees,

If you were let go from Matterport due to the COVID-19 pandemic, feel free to post info to this WGAN Forum discussion.

You might include what kind of opportunity that you are seeking and a link to your LinkedIn profile (and/or email). Plus, feel free to LinkedIn to me to help get you getting to others in our space.

While we may be at odds at the leadership direction of Matterport, we are with you in helping connect you to your next opportunity.

Two resources that may be helpful:

WGAN List of 130+ 3D/360º Virtual Tour Hosting Platforms/Software
WGAN List of 50+ 3D/360º Cameras for Virtual Tours

Below is a screen grab that alerted me to the Matterport reduction in force ( "that affected many of us" )

Thinking good thoughts for you.

Stay healthy,

Dan

They should be working on their software to make it better, "lighting", and not laying off people. I'm still out doing 3D's, more than ever now!

Their board has a lot of people issues. I don't think they even like us and we pay their salaries.

Here is my latest 3d. Only $5,900,000 with a great location. Contact me if you have a buyer:

Mahalo and Happy Easter,

I think the title of Chief Revenue Officer had a higher obligation to the CEO & Shareholders.

Didn't see much in there helping out our current issues as customers. Given the way they treat Super Dee and the founders of the company. I've been lead to believe the care of employees was an even lower priority on the totem pole.

Best wishes to all the MP employees affected by the layoffs. For that matter, likewise to the survivors whose workload will double, likely for the same paycheck.

We’ve all known the truth from the beginning.
• No white label = downplay the contributions of MSPs
• No pano enhancing = prevent quality differentiation by MSPs
• No pano repositioning = exclude MSP skill differentiation
• No MSP mesh editing = exclude MSP editing skills
• and on and on.

Other platforms give these tools and many others to creators. The company’s plan from the beginning was to exclude skill at the MSP level so that any ambulatory human could push the button and create a passable model. MP has never wanted MSP skill to become part of the equation, as this would interfere with turning it into a 3D Uber service that “anyone can do”.

We’ve all known that Uber’s long-game plan was to get rid of the drivers once autonomous vehicles are finally on the roads. MP can’t do this until later, when Boston Dynamics robots can open a lockbox, but that’s coming, one day. Doubt it? Watch these.

Short


Long version

If you want to provide Virtual Tours while feeding a family, look to other platforms. It won’t get better. The executives at MP have made that clear for years.
