      Pros

      axios is a fast paced, growing company that is trying to do things differently - in the media and tech space and as a startup. there are lots of opportunities for personal and professional growth and to contribute to the company's growth.

      Cons

      it's a demanding place to work and you have to be self motivated and comfortable with change

      Lots of opportunity, but start-ups not for everyone

      Pros

      There is a lot of opportunity to grow at this company, especially for reporters and editors that are new in the industry. Ideas are encouraged from everyone since Axios itself is still pretty new. There are plenty of chances to go above and beyond and to stand out. Also, it's fairly easy to collaborate with other reporters and editors on larger projects if you can make the time.

      Cons

      A start-up atmosphere is not for everyone, and it's okay to be honest about that. You generally have to push yourself to meet your own goals and there is less structure than a traditional newsroom. However, Axios still has enough traditional newsroom elements going on that it's not a total fish-out-of-water environment if this would be your first start-up.

      Wonderful job and culture

      Pros

      We have a huge People Operations team that helps drives culture, D&I work, etc, so we have a lot of resources to support us. Axios has a more distinct culture than I have ever experienced before and it is very cool to be a part of that. We are growing quickly, so there are ample opportunities for growth. I work on a great team and under a great management, and I'm not the only one. It is great to be a part of a successful start-up, for once!

      Cons

      We are still very young and experiencing the growing pains that come with fast growth.
