Pros

None. This company is a sinking ship. Supposedly this latest layoff will means that Podium is bringing back the 401k. Can you imagine laying off people and then bringing back the 401k to appease those that survived? The irony.

Cons

Where do I start? Senior leadership takes no accountability for this dying company. 2 layoffs in less then a year with no impact to the executive team. CEO stood up in front of the company at one point and said "I don't care what you think about our executive team, I think they're great." Well, I guess you all can go down with the ship since you're the problem.

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.
