Pros

The leadership at Axios truly cares about their staff and is always acting with their best interest in mind. Your colleagues are the best of the best, truly the most intelligent and hardworking group of people you'll ever work with.

Cons

There is limited PTO which doesn't allow for a lot of flexibility, but there are other benefits in place to compensate. It's a fast-paced environment, like most startups, but everyone pitches in to handle the busy days!

Pros

I have worked in finance, consulting, and tech and been exposed to all types of different kinds of leaders...the Axios founders and leadership team are by far the most genuine, hard-working, and honest group of people I've ever worked with. They practice what they preach...radical transparency, constant communication, and humility. They care deeply about the company and the mission, but they also care deeply for their employees. All teams are extremely collaborative and hard-working which is super refreshing...at some orgs you always wonder "should I be asking this person this?" but at Axios I feel comfortable going to ANY of my colleagues knowing that if they can't help me, they'll at least try to point me in the right direction. Your colleagues and teammates make you want to be a better employee and a better person.

Cons

Everything I mentioned above makes the culture very unique and that might not be for everyone.
