It is our culture here at Pax8 to welcome and appreciate feedback, even negative feedback. We do appreciate when Pax8 employees & past employees provide us with actionable feedback and we have consistently incorporated Glassdoor feedback in our action planning process. That said, the headline you've used for this review is inaccurate. There is no "Federal Unemployment Office" which deems companies Toxic. We are very sorry that your experience here was so negative and would appreciate the opportunity for a conversation about your review. We are committed to continually working to improve the Pax8 employee experience and all feedback is appreciated. Please contact your People and Culture Team Business Partner or me directly.

Pros

Remote work and good work/life balance.

Cons

-They talk a lot about career advancement and mobility but that's only true for certain teams and roles. A lot of departments are dead ends and it's almost impossible to escape them (even when going through the "career coaching" services they offer internally). Promotions seem to depend more on who you know than what you can do and you need to get "in" with the right people if you want to be considered. -The managers are rough. They keep saying they're working on better training but it hasn't shown yet. A lot of people have been promoted because they've been at the company for awhile but they aren't necessarily well equipped for leading teams or driving strategy for the stage of growth the business is in. It's painful to watch some managers that are so clearly in over their heads. -Compensation is 10-20% below comparable roles in the Denver market. It doesn't look like there's any sign the company will be adjusting salaries to match market rate any time soon.

Thank you for your helpful review. While we wish all reviews were positive, we really appreciate constructive feedback as well. We are glad you appreciate our hybrid workplace model and the work/life balance you've experienced, we are disappointed that you have not achieved the career growth you'd hoped for. You are right that many of our People Leaders are new to leadership and need additional training and development. We have just launched a new training curriculum to strengthen leadership capability across Pax8. While change takes time, this is our #1 priority in Learning & Development. We do strive to remain competitive in our approach to total compensation and appreciate your perspective on market conditions. We will continue to monitor this closely. As always, we welcome a direct conversation about employee concerns. Please reach out to your People and Culture Team Business Partner or to me directly. Thanks again for your review.

Pros

They work hard to maintain a good culture and that stands out against other companies ive worked for

Cons

You work hard, and you can definitely get paid more for doing less at other places but the culture and self-development i have had the opportunity to experience here is unmatched

Thank you for your positive review of your experience at Pax8. We truly value the feedback. One of our major initiatives in early 2023 is a comprehensive listening campaign to help Pax8 get a holistic view of the employee experience across all of our regions and teams. Our goal, as you suggest, is to continually focus on making the Pax8 experience truly extraordinary. Thanks again for your review and we are glad you are along for the ride!
