Pros

The product is genuinely world class, it’s delivers great results. The swag and culture are solid, benefits are nice and the people in my experience were great. It is a really good company, and compensation is very good if you do well. but you do need to think carefully about joining

Cons

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
