Pros

Podium has an excellent product that actually works.

Cons

Podium has no concern for their employees right now, they are trimming the fat so they look really good to the investors. They’ve been talking about a company goal for the last 3 years or so that will help benefit those investors and it seems like they’re getting desperate to make it happen and it’s negatively effecting the work environment and I’m not sure it’ll ever go back. I have spoken to dozens of employees and there is a lot of uncertainty and anxiety that's being caused by the attitude of upper management. I used to tell everyone how much I loved it there and now my feelings have definitely changed.

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.
