      A culture of transparency and trust

      Pros

      Working at Axios during the coronavirus crisis has laid bare the strong foundation the founders of the company have built: Employees have full visibility into the financial state of the company, the company has acted swiftly to take care of all workers, there has been proactive communication about new initiatives and employees have the opportunity to ask anything and get an answer in front of the whole company.

      Cons

      Axios is a startup in all that it entails — that includes growing fast, being flexible and adaptable and working at the pace needed to succeed. For some, that can be difficult to manage.

      A company worthy of your trust

      Business Outlook

      Pros

      Diversity and inclusion are actual priorities, instead of simply talking points. There's a spirit of collaboration and a collective energy to produce truly remarkable news and avoid BS. Employees are creative problem-solvers and tackle issues with grace under pressure. Employees are empowered to know multiple parts of the business- transparency in action, not just in concept. Communication from the senior-level is frequent and informative, there's truly an open-door policy, and no question goes unanswered.

      Cons

      The pace, which is invigorating 97% of the time, can be brutal the other 3% if you come from a "traditional" workplace that's less inclined to innovate.
