Pros

Amazing product. Maybe a little ahead of its time. The founders of the company are charismatic and make a lot of sense if you listen too them.

Cons

Due to the financial instability at the company, morale is very low. Numerous lay-offs and an almost palpable tension between the two sets of developers responsible for the two core products contribute to this atmosphere. There is a lack of good management in the company, and processes are poorly defined. There is a lot of internal animosity between international divisions and very little teamwork. The general atmosphere in the office is stale. It feels like a library much of the time, no social interactions are going on, people locked into their own little worlds, many spend a good portion of the day with headphones on, as if blocking out the rest of the world. For the company to be successful, it will need better management, and a happier environment. As it stands, the two best things about the company - the product itself and the founders - are not enough to call this a great company.

Thank you for your comment. Glassdoor changed your review to show you worked at IQGeo Group when the company was called Ubisense. IQGeo was formed in 2019. Any comments prior to 2019 are about Ubisense, not IQGeo Group.

Pros

In our late world of employee churn. IQGeo seems to actively be trying to keep long time employees, highly regarding experience and expertise.

Cons

As a mostly remote company, it can feel a little disconnected.

Pros

Friendly teams, everyone gets along nicely. WFH/Remote for a majority of employees, if they're not there, people are in the Denver or Cambridge offices.

Cons

Lack of career progression. No skills develop beyond maybe your first 4 months at the job. Mundane and repetitive work.
