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

I stumbled into Axon during the covid layoffs in 2020. I made an industry switch from hospitality and couldn't be happier! Working at Axon has been nothing short of amazing. Not only does it feel rewarding to work for a company that is trying to do right by law enforcement and the public to "protect life," the company treats their employees so well. From health benefits, to unlimited PTO policy, to overall comradery within departments and across the organization, there really isn't a negative about working here! Pro's: * good compensation with potential for stock plans, bonuses and commission. * unlimited PTO * wfh opportunities * flexible working hours * good transparency and communication from upper management across the organization * being part of the mission to find non lethal ways to protect life * working with others who are just as dedicated to axon's overall mission statement and values * potential for growth (whether in your department or in a different one) the company is supportive of you growing even if it means moving to a different department * ability to connect with people all over the world working towards the same goal

Cons

With any job there are some cons, but the list is short for Axon. Cons: * longer working hours during busier times of the year * potential weekend work * system issues
