Pros

When an assignment comes your way ( which takes a very long time as the you are on the waitlist for at least a month with no pay if not longer)they will work towards a flexible structure that is amenable to you.

Cons

Many cons. Outright falsities stated at the interviews about the opportunities available and waitlist times. No communication during the time you are on the waitlist.

Pros

Your experience working at Axiom depends on the role you have there. The company is nimble enough to win business and it's through the efforts of a few that win the big deals there. The rest of the company is floundering. It appears much better on the outside looking in than to actually work there. Don't let the 'intense' interview process fool you.

Cons

The company culture is arrogant and seeks to hire people with educational pedigree and they put you through a ridiculous interview process. Some people went through over 15 interviews to get a job there. Once hired, you are provided barely any training to do your job and professional development is just getting on their radar. I've never worked for a company where there are so m any unhappy employees who whisper behind closed doors and where the level of frustration is so high but the executive management doesn't seem to care. Very unprofessional environment where management feels they can do anything they want and executive level management is either clueless or doesn't care. CEO barely talks to anyone other than his clique.

Pros

Work life balance is super reasonable. Used to have great T&E budgets/resources but this has gotten cut. My manager really cared about me. Not a lot of pressure to be in the office. Travel could be fun. High profile clients for sure. Plays well on a resume.

Cons

- The spinouts and the PE investment lead to a truly massive exodus. I know more people who don't work at Axiom anymore than I know people who are. This is really changing the culture, which had always been Axiom's selling point. - On that note, the culture has atrophied. There's less leadership, less budget, and again, so many people on the business side have left and management really isn't addressing it. - The new CEO is..... a lot. Very different than the warm and fuzzy of Elena. He's a sales hunter and a sign of the company Axiom wants to be. - The new leadership and PE are really making Axiom a sales machine. This isn't the worst thing, but expect high goals. - Comp could be WAY better. - There's a lot of favoritism here in terms of what accounts are given to whom. - It's hard to sell lawyers to companies. I definitely had to white lie to clients about a lawyer's personality or background in order to get the deal done. Recruit better lawyers, the supply is a real issue. - Likes to talk about how innovative they are but Axiom is 20 years old. No longer a disrupter. It's a fancy staffing agency and it seems that everyone knows that except Axiom. - Culture was very social, very focused on drinking and going out. Lots of privileged people work here. Not terrible diverse.
