Pros

It is a job that has benefits.

Cons

This is by far the most toxic culture I have ever been associated with. They hire 40 new employees every 2 weeks and go through turnover like wildfire. They do NOT care about their employees in any way. There is no support nor are the employees set up for success. The pay is extremely low and they do not communicate at all. It is the epitome of a toxic, white, bro culture. The one interview process is a facade as they will lie in the interview. There is no SDR support until you reach AE 3, so you are cold calling terrible leads with outdated or no information. Do yourself a favor and pass, huge regret.

Pros

Cool office building, learn from some of the best sales reps you’ll come across in your career

Cons

I worked at podium for a few years. It was the most toxic sales culture I’ve ever experienced. I do not say that lightly It was worth the money a year/two plus ago. They raised quotas multiple times in the last year and decreased the commission percentages. It is wild how many hoops an ae had to jump through to close a deal. In my 7+ of being in sales it was probably the hardest sale to close and I was a top rep. If you want to join podium it could be a good learning experience but it will come with a lot of headaches, anxiety about job security (they pip sales reps out like no other company I’ve ever worked for) and maybe some tears
