The Matterport team is the first to have built an end-to-end system for creating, modifying, distributing, and navigating immersive 3D and virtual reality versions of real-world spaces. The spaces are designed for the web and mobile devices. By far, the Matterport solution is the least expensive and simplest way to capture 3D spaces on a global level. The Chicago-based company is located in the loop right off of the Chicago River. Employees enjoy the spot because of the diverse options for lunch and after-work hangouts.

They Knocked This One Out of the Park
Being located in Chicago, it makes sense that the office is filled with Cubs fans. As part of the fun activities the company hosts every year, the employees are rewarded with visits to Wrigley Field to catch a Cubs game. If baseball isn't your cup of ~beer~ there are plenty of happy hours that are hosted every month. Plus, the company hosts other outings like bowling and whirlyball. And with the in-office massages, you'll be able to take a deep breath and relax after all of these events.
