This company wants to be seen as caring for it's employees, but in reality it does not stand by it's promises, it does not offer raises/opportunity for advancement as they claim to, and they have let far more people in the US go than they have hired, but they just opened up a brand new office in Bangalore, India. If you live overseas, then this is a great job for you. If you live in the US and you have any qualifications whatsoever, they will take advantage of you. Instead of offering more money as you learn more, they "encourage" you to work as much overtime as you possibly can. One employee even worked 90+ hours in a single week and they did not think that proved the need to hire more employees. The kitchen that was offered prior to COVID has been eliminated making it that much less worth it to work for them. Nothing was done over the COVID shutdown for their employees besides giving a very small amount of money per month to each employee to cover everything from buying desks and chairs to paying for internet/AC/electricity at home. They claim to be open to criticism and want people to speak their concerns, but once concerns are spoken, you can be sure they will put you on their "naghty" list and quickly find a way to get rid of you or shut you up. They really just want sheep that they can herd in whatever direction they want, they don't actually want good employees. Working harder for them does nothing besides get you more money due to OT, not due to raises. In my time with EagleView, I saw at least 5x as many people leave/get let go from the company than I did see get hired, as long as you don't count India! Almost none of the original members who started the company as Pictometry work there any longer and I can absolutely see why. The direction of the company is straight into the ground. They are not investing in their successful endeavors further, instead they continue to bash their head against new products that continuously come up with lower accuracy and lower quality than they could with their existing platforms. Their Christmas/New Year's "bonus" was a blanket which shed all over the place and fell apart immediately upon washing after clogging up the machine. Very little good to say about this company, I hope I can save you the trouble and turn you away before you even apply.

This is by far the most mentally damaging job I've ever experienced. Leadership is a complete joke and you are worked to the point of tears and expected to act like it's normal. The pay is flat out insulting for how much work is dumped on your plate. Management constantly forces you to join "teams" which is their way of getting you to work multiple jobs for absolutely no increase in pay. The turnover rate is so high it pretty much says it all, they are having trouble hiring because the pay is so low, yet they still refuse to increase the pay. Management uses intimidation tactics to get you to meet unrealistic expectations and work overtime. It is impossible to take time off without suffering the consequences when you return. You are completely set up for failure then take the heat when projects don't go out fast enough. The tools rarely work properly and instead of doing anything about it they just create nonsensical work-arounds. People get promoted to higher positions based on being in cahoots with management but they don't actually have any skills or knowledge and need to constantly be saved by lower level workers. This is a prime example of a toxic corporate culture where the workers who hold the company together are treated like they are disposable and worthless, then management wonders why they can't keep people. I was personally belittled and ridiculed only a few days into the job and tried to persevere despite that until I simply couldn't take it anymore. I truly do not understand how anybody in their right mind can work here for very long without going insane. The level of unprofessionalism and mismanagement that goes on here is unlike anything I've ever experienced. Even when I am thanked or recognized for getting through an insurmountable task or project, I'm told I can't be promised any kind of raise or promotion, it is simply not worth it. You should only work here if you are truly desperate and think you can hang on until you can find something better. Most of the department have rightfully left the company leaving the remaining few to face an impossible workload. Anyone who stays with this company must somehow not realize that they can find something far better if they simply apply elsewhere.

This company has 2 phases: Busy season and slow season. Slow season, it is one of the most relaxing jobs you'll ever have. You'll learn a lot, enjoy what you learn and for the most part, you'll enjoy the customer base you come in contact with. I did like most of the employees there, I would say this company is blessed to have so much talent for the level they're paying. The busy season was near unbearable in my department, as mandatory overtime and long work hours will take a toll on your psyche. Ultimately, I left due to having an opportunity shut in my face, as I was wanting another position and came on to eventually make a department switch. Compensation for the level of work doesn't match up, you WILL be working hard just about every day you come in and earn your paycheck. They didn't seem keen on giving raises, and gave a lot of false promises when it came to allotting more employee benefits. There was a lot of rumblings, rumors and hooplah about what was happening at the top, as there were several top executives coming and going in the less than a year I worked there. All in all, this company is growing and isn't going anywhere. They really tapped into a niche market and their competitors can't touch their hold on this niche market. If you want to find a job that you could turn into a career with hard work, this is the one.

When I was hired I was led to believe I would be working 40 hour weeks. Turns out its common practice to push the engineers and technicians into overtime, including coming in on weekends. Its common for workers to stay so late they need to order take out food. The wages are riculously low for what they ask of people. People are pleasant to your face but if you don't kiss up enough to management and team leads then you will be out in the cold. I have witnessed many coworkers lose their jobs simply because they got off on the wrong foot with someone. There is no redeeming yourself with Eagleview, if you displease someone or make a minor mistake then you're on the chopping block. The turnover rate for this company is the highest I have ever seen, its very rare that anyone is around long enough to get promoted let alone keep their jobs. Communication and collaboration between departments is abysmal. To make things worse a lot of work has been outsourced to the Philippines, the language barrier is difficult enough but add in how badly the Filippino workers are mismanaged and you get major headaches and hours of redoing work to bring it up to company standards.

Overall, this company is pretty good. Pay doesn't sound like much, being $15.20 an hour, but that does not take into account perdiem, or overtime. 

The hotels they put you up in are normally nice, and they cover all initial booking of hotels and rental cars. You also get to accumulate points at the various hotels and rental car companies which is nice.

The schedule is 30 days on, 14 days off which can be taxing for sure; especially if you have a family - However, this is one of the better aerial survey pilot schedules out there; most are 7 months straight.

The aircraft definitely show their age, and have quite a bit of maintenance issues. The company takes mx pretty seriously when you identify a problem, and they work to get it fixed in a timely (for the most part) manner. 

This is not a great time building job, however. the average amount of hours pilots get is approximately 40 hours a month. 20 hours per 30 day rotation isn't uncommon due to weather or maintenance problems.

You are expected to be within 30 minutes of the airport at all times when on the clock, even if the weather is absolute trash, or if your plane is in the shop "just in case you need to do something for the mechanic or if the weather clears, you need to be ready at a moments notice"


Company offers lots of junk food and drinks. Company policy seems to be dependent upon which department you work in. Company retaliated against me after I informed management about  co-workers abusing company policy. I first brought my issues to the people whom I had them with, and they continued. Nepotism is common place, and how company acquires new talent.  Managers have family members under their direct supervision.  Huge pay discrepancy between positions. Company used 'other tech companies don't do it' as an excuse for not providing basic cost of living increases in pay etc. Company actively works against employees who voice the need to unionize. Worked nearly my entire first year on mandatory overtime. At times, working here was a lot of fun, but after the company was bought by a venture capital company most of the culture was killed off when they fired or got the original members to quit. Company employs a lot of great talent, but doesn't come pay them competitively and gives excuses for why. Much of this talent comes and goes in order to be paid more fairly.

Laughably low pay compared to any job here found with a different employer. Favoritism and nepotism run amok here. Unless you are comfortable sacrificing your own self respect and dignity to succeed here, I strongly recommend applying or working literally anywhere else.

Senior management and executive leadership come in one of two flavors at EagleView:
1) astoundingly disconnected from the proletariat and unaware of needs and issues at the worker level. Example - CEO's monthly email blast is called "A View From The Helm" with a picture from his/a yacht, sent out to hundreds of employees who work 2,3,4 jobs outside of EV since the pay is so low.

2) a power trip embracing dictator-type "leadership" reminiscent of the 1930s/1940s. Even the smallest hint of disagreement results in being blacklisted. Open door policies and placing "candor" as a company value but only when the conversation puts the company or person in a positive light.

I joined when it was still Pictometry and it was a really good company to work for. Pictometry then joined with Eagleview and things started going downhill. They started getting rid of duplicate positions, but they were all on the pictometry side. Then Eagleview was bought by a venture capitalist company and things went even more downhill. The culture turned toxic and many people started jumping ship or were and are being let go. They drastically cut compensation on the sales team and it seems like they're hiring younger cheaper people now. They are trying to have this Amazon / Google campus feel and it all seems very fake. Middle  management act as pawns for upper management and are really just looking out for their own jobs. Also, there is a lot of competition out there, so the hold on the market that Pictometry oncr had, is steadily slipping away. The stress that this causes has resulted in many new half-baked products being released that are not ready to be released.

What is the best part of working at the company?
The people are really nice and friendly.

What is the most stressful part about working at the company?
Constantly shifting priorities, leadership changes direction with the wind, lots of conflicting priorities and confusion from quarter to quarter. 

What is the work environment and culture like at the company?
I loved the flexibility of work schedules, generous time off and sick policies, work life balance is really good, and there's lots of growth opportunities and training.

What is a typical day like for you at the company?
Lots of meetings and lots of Teams calls to discuss and discuss and discuss and then discuss some more. But in the end, no real decisions are made because nobody can commit to anything when priorities shift so quickly and dramatically.

I enjoy the challenges and the many tasks to take on at once although we focus a significant dedication to our clients who are mostly polite people from a diverse background. Empathy and organization is key to success. 

I do think our training program needs to focus more so on thorough training for new hires because the job consists of so many processes that are oftentimes lacking of accountability. Many of us value our clients and strive to guarentee satisfaction to these skilled contractors out there and insurance adjusters as they are an important to provide accurate measurements for construction and such. 

The technology behind our services is thorough and accurate to, again, provide time-saving products of which are valuable and ever so committed.
