Pros
The pros for working at Podium are really only the product which is best in market, and the pay which is great for high performing AEs. *Note the pay for SDRs is terrible and the current SDR Team Lead earns considerably less than junior AEs which is appalling.
Cons
The level of bias and inherant sexism is quite shocking. You only have to look at the number of women in the Melbourne sales team and there average length of service to see there's an issue. It's an incredibly negative and old school environment which the GM does not seem capable or willing to change. Must be at your desk for 8am and judged for leaving before 5:30pm when official contracted hours are 37 hours per week. It's a very American culture and they seem unwilling to adapt like other companies have post-covid. The level of anxiety and stress related illness across the sales team is so concerning and this can be seen in the extreme staff turnover. Podium is great if you are part of the high-performing, white male inner circle. But if you fall outside that or have a voice you are really not welcome.
