Pros

The company is generous with its workers. There are plenty of happy hours, free meals, and events in which employees can partake.

Cons

The workforce is young and inexperienced, starting with the executives. The sales people give away the farm to sell a cow, and this type of selling can only be sustained for so long. The non competitive Taser market has masked terrible margins in their body camera business, and they are extremely careless with money. Along with poorly run operations, it is very clicky and can be uncomfortable to work there if you don't fit in. It is sad that a company with a great product is being run the way it is.

Thank you for taking the time to write this review. We are sorry to hear that you had a negative experience working with us. As you mention in your review, we prioritize our employees' experience and promote a work hard, play hard type of environment with happy hours and events. We also have a great leadership team that is equipped with a wide array of backgrounds, education and knowledge. We have internal communication channels wherein employees can address their concerns and questions about the direction of the company and have seen robust discussions emerge from these forums. Again, we are sorry that you had a less than positive experience as an Axon employee and thank you for your candid feedback.
