Best place I've worked in over 15 years!

Pros

strong culture and deep commitment to DEI, respectful of chaotic personal lives during a pandemic (I'm a working mom with a baby), transparency from top, down about company's strategic goals and how all our work ties up to the goals. Our CEO has communicated with the full team throughout the pandemic and has remained transparent around our company health - our Founders also committed to a family fund to support folks and their families during these tough times, and have launched several programs to get folks the mental health support they all need.

Cons

Our mission-driven, fast-paced work requires energy and flexibility. It's an incredibly fun place to work and collaborate, but it is not the place for everyone.

Pros

The company gets it right in every way. Employees are treated with kindness and respect and made to feel valued from the start. The founders have strong values that drive everything. Candor and communication are core. The leadership is thoughtful and transparent and the People team fosters an open and welcoming environment for all. The staff are smart, dedicated people who are also nice. When people ask the best thing about working at Axios it’s hard to choose — but it always comes back to the culture and values.

Cons

I cannot think of any downsides.
