Growth on all fronts

Not only did Geotab grow financially between 2017 and 2020, but we also grew in terms of total number of employees. At the end of 2017, we had a total of 597 employees, but by the end of 2020 we had 1,532. Now, in 2022, we have more than 2,000 employees and 100 students with dozens of open roles still looking to be filled across multiple departments. 

As Geotab’s CEO, Neil Cawse puts it: “It's an honor to be recognized as one of Americas’ fastest growing companies but it's also important to realize that what got us here — to be able to do this — is the people that work here. It is the amazing people that allow us to grow that in turn allow us to hire more amazing people!”
