Pros

As a company, I enjoyed Axon. The mission is just, focused and successful. There are some fine people working there on average.

Cons

The company's failing, and it's a big one, is HR. For one, I've tried to assist friends with internal referrals, who have never even had their resume reviewed. Rejected without review. I've seen fantastic resumes get bounced based on poor review systems, process and people. A company is only as good as its employees, and HR blocks so many fine candidates through sheer incompetence. I left for other pastures, and feel freer to say "Don't feel bad if you get a form email". It's not you.

Pros

Good pay and benefits Flexible PTO RSU's

Cons

Company morale is low. The other recent reviews stating this are extremely accurate. Company culture has eroded and the company values don't seem to matter anymore. 'Winning Right' has become lip service. Senior leadership refuses to address the problems many departments are having with headcount and workload. They don't really care about the customer experience. RTO makes no sense when most of your team remains remote in the same role, a role in which you spend much of the time on calls with customers and meeting with other team members virtually. Not enough staff to support the RMS customer base and ticket counts have ballooned.
