Disappointing Shift

Pros

Amazing engineers and a great collaborative place to work, utilizing and not afraid to delve into newer technologies.

Cons

Management constantly turning worse, bringing in a toxic culture with them along with incompetency. Also likely a one-off experience but had almost no guidance and opportunities for growth for my level, despite expressing my enthusiasm. Strong internal engineering culture holds it together, but is not exactly sustainable.

Pros

Great people to work with. Work/life balance is taken seriously, don't feel overworked. Chill / relaxed environment. Interesting work. I've hopped around the last few years because most companies don't seem to draw a connection between how they treat their employees and how they retain them. I've been here since the end of May, so about 6 months now, and I'm generally pretty happy with pace of work, co-workers, boss, etc. This is the first time where I've felt like I can stay for a long time and it actually makes sense to do so. The health insurance is excellent too, which is a huge plus as well.

Cons

The interview process is honestly not great. We just copy LeetCode problems, same broken process as other tech companies, but the thing is that we don't pay like other tech companies. We do base, bonus and RSUs same as them, sure, but our pay is not competitive compared to the other tech companies asking LeetCode questions. It's fine right now since no one else is hiring but this will likely lead to difficulty in attracting and retaining talent when other tech companies are hiring again.

Pros

Axon as a company is good, but group is the one of the worst

Cons

The Group in total has zero idea about reliability. Team is made up non engineering people with 99% hand on activity rather than engineering activity. In addition, people attitude is very bad. They scream and call at odd hours
