Pros

This tech start-up is awesome. I currently work at Podium and have enjoyed the company thoroughly. Still a new start-up feeling with a lucrative business model and projects to have an amazing year. The leadership is outstanding and they have created a fun, but hard working environment that allows the company to keep growing like it has been. Proactive in resolving issues. HR is great. Growth opportunities are obvious. Path to promotion is clear.

Cons

The benefits are basic - medical, dental, vision - and are slightly expensive. Stock purchase not yet available, but sounds like it may be just around the corner. Massive growth mode and just about over occupancy, need new space ASAP. Overall great company, pro-actively taking steps to resolve these few issues.

Pros

Great coworkers, lower-middle management, product, PTO “unlimited” which isn’t true but does allow flexible usage, generous 2 days off for many holidays, and catered food ~3 times a month, regularly stocked fridge with energy drinks, soda, and water.

Cons

Top down leadership disconnected from sales and customer success team. Little coordinated efforts between nearly every department. Overhauled the pay structure Jan 2026, getting rid of the performance based promotion and pay scaling. Preventing OM’s from making the advertised 77k leading to many of us now stuck at 60k or 66k w/ a horrible annualized raise schedule (high performers not getting raises left waiting for potential raises that likely won’t come this year). Nearly nonexistent HR that is hard to get in communication with.
