Podium reviews

1. Leads. You couldn’t get colder leads if you tried. They will tell you Podium is a ‘known, household brand’ but it’s just not. Success is highly dependant on your own cold calling ability and what SDR you get. Even the inbounds aren’t amazing or come from events that are meh. Marketing genuinely need to revisit their strategy and execution on the digital side because it’s laughably bad 2. Systems. The level of inefficiency is staggering. To send out a contract is a 60+ step process and there is no instruction on how to do it, you just have to get a senior to help and even they struggle 3. Choice. You have no input into the vertices you’re hired into, and that is a very big deal. Ask them clearly in the interview stage what vertices you’ll be in then research thoroughly if they are doing well in that vertical Remote. You’ll be told there is no formal wfh policy but it’s flexible. It isn’t. Management will just pull evryone in on a whim regardless of wfh arrangements

- legacy tech limits the work that can be done; very slow to move features. - product is very niche and geared towards one customer only - Design leadership is lacking, no strong culture of nurturing, a lack of effective feedback cycles and a lack of transparency about decision-making.
