Podium reviews

Clumsy systems, unreasonable workload expectations, at EOM they push a churn and burn approach to expansion, despite significant retention targets of the AM team.

-Too much favourtism. When SDR's set for AE's its supposed to be a round robin system but continually SDR's were setting for certain AE's directly, either because they had closer relationships with those AE's, or Pod Leads were telling them to allocate the meeting to that AE irrespective of who came up on the round robin. -The product looks good on the surface but actually isn't quite as good as you think. For one it's too expensive. Most deal sizes are $500-700pcm, whereas it's probably worth around $250-300pcm. Also the review conversion isn't great, and the chat feature is only good for certain industries. Hence the churn here is through the roof. -Definitely some shady behaviour goes on behind the scenes. It's a win at all costs mentality which means there's a lot of wolves in sheep's clothing lurking around. People who present as nice and ethical will still screw you over behind the scenes. -Too many of the leadership team lack experience outside of Podium.
