Dying product, unhealthy work environment and clueless execs...yah this place kinda sucks - Anonymous employee Axceler Employee Review

Fast paced Great team Terrific product strategy Strong business

You must be committed to the company and your career -- a lot is expected of you. As long as you're not afraid of working, this is an opportunity of a lifetime. Would be great to feel more connected to the corporate office.

The upbeat and fun culture in the Sales department sparks energy and ideas throughout the entire organization. As I have a technical background, I was afraid that the position might be too 'Sales-y' for me; I quickly found that the Sales Engineering role requires great problem solving skills and thinking-on-your-feet to face the challenges that come up on a daily basis. The support systems through the organization make it easy to find any answers you don't have. Although I have the most interaction with Sales on a regular basis, I've been able to mold my 'job description' to reflect my strengths and work on my weaknesses through interactions with all parts of the organization. I have been part of several cross-functional teams and projects that engage my interests will helping the organization's progress. On a side note: If you find that you are better suited for another area of the organization, you can easily transition between roles as the departments are so well-connected. If you are happy with the position and reflect it well, you do get rewarded for your actions!

There is an expectation to put in extra hours when needed(usually nearing the end of quarter), but you get rewarded with shorter days around holidays. The position requires some travel for Conferences, Saturday Trade Shows or On-Sites, but this travel is well-spread across the department. Visibility is key when it comes to recognition and rewards. To reach the next stage in your career at Axceler, you need to reach a pre-determined milestone or show that your presence is well-received with the addition of projects, cross-functional communication, etc.
