Amazing Company, Culture, Values, & Opportunity!

Pros

--Solving some of the biggest issues facing the world. Our mission is to protect life and make the bullet obsolete- how freaking cool is that?! --Fast-paced environment with a ton of room for opportunity. There are countless stories of individuals within Axon elevating quickly- whether that be in the divisions they joined within or in a completely different area. Fast growth means limitless potential here! --Our values are real and lived out here. Every single day, in every single org within the business. --Genuine, sharp, passionate, and fun coworkers. We are solving big issues, and everyone here seems to understand that in order to do that we have to work together as a whole versus in silos. There is a strong sense of teamwork (join forces!) and little to no ego. --Incredible and inspiring leadership. They are transparent, thoughtful, and show time and time again that they deeply care about their employees, customers, and the world. --While the company is growing and there's certainly a lot of work to be done, there is also a heavy emphasis on work/life balance and ensuring employees have the opportunity to truly decompress and enjoy their personal lives. --Competitive compensation packages and benefits/perks offering. The icing on the cake!

Cons

--These environments are never for everyone. The work can be hard, the growing pains can be...well...painful, and you have to be able to operate in fluctuating levels of ambiguity. --Sometimes the space we are in is polarizing. I generally find this is especially the case with individuals/groups that only look at one layer of our business from a high-level without really understanding what we are doing and the why behind it (again, reference our mission, it's real and it's powerful).
