Pros
I made some great friends during my time at Daxko. People tend to get close when they're trying to cope in difficult environments.
Cons
The CEO likes to hide behind prepared statements and the messages passed down to employees are calculated. There are no growth opportunities, if you're lucky your manager will be honest and tell you this from the start. They want high turnover so they can continue to pay less than market averages for the same role. They do not care to invest in their employees. I was a manager on my team at Daxko, I left the company and took a lower title, and increased my salary by $8K. They'll say they're doing what they need to do to survive, but the truth is their leader is unequipped to navigate his team tough times. Tough times require empathy and he just doesn't have it. He loves to say that no one wrote a book on how to survive the pandemic, and while that's true, it's a cowardly response to his mistakes. He talks about Extreme Ownership but refuses to take ownership of the countless negative reviews that are left about his leadership. He actually asked employees to NOT leave negative reviews during a company all-hands. Leadership has convinced themselves they are doing the best they can. I don't accept it, and that's why I left.
