Podium reviews

-Unorganized -Takes days to hear back from leadership -training is awful

Podium’s culture revolves around two things: Mormonism and Jocko Willink. This is never mentioned when you speak to the recruiters or the sales managers that interview you. The large majority of the employees at this company (including the founders) are openly Mormon. One leader who speak to my new hire class talked about how proud he was that the church of Latter Day Saints was a Podium customer… Then they try to pretend that they support LGBTQIA+, which is just laughable. They use Mormon stories about their times as missionaries to try to motivate you, assuming you can relate. They worship Jocko Willink’s “Extreme Ownership” mentality, which really just justifies their lack of training and support. Many of the leaders have prior military experience and they lead you in a very militant way. Don’t expect any real training at this company. They throw you in the water and say “sink or swim” after the first 4 days. You are left with little to no support from your teammates and managers and your teammates feel far more like your competition than actual teammates.
