Pros

- Good company mission. - Good compensation for Utah. - Company swag is OK (if it's in stock). - Building in Lehi is nice and has stocked fridges, etc.

Cons

- So much attrition at every level (seriously, it's so bad). - Hustle culture is cultivated at the executive level which gets emulated throughout all management. - Some executives seem so self-unaware, it's painful to watch in town halls. - Front end code base is steeped in technical debt that nobody seems to want to address. If you're reading this thinking that you might want to work at Podium, take note of any flags going in. I ignored them thinking I could fix things and ended up staying much longer than I should have only to see things get worse. Your mental health isn't worth it. Podium is beyond hope but they have a ways to go and you can probably find a better gig somewhere else.
