Pros

The product is awesome. It's great to work on something that makes a real impact for small businesses around the world. Podium is doing a great job of ramping up the available products to meet a broader range of companies' needs as well, so I have very high hopes for this company.

Cons

Fast growing company comes with usual growing pains. Nothing too bad though. Unique tech stack that I am still getting the hang of, but it seems everyone is very happy with it once they get comfortable.

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.
