Axon reviews

-Work stress is a lot - The performance is reviewed as a bell curve so there’s always a sense of comparison with your peers more then it should be -Operates like a startup and almost every task is a priority - there is zero time given to ramp up if coming from a different tech stack - there is strong expectation on doing managerial work as coordinating with teams, making jira tickets and leading planning and grooming meetings, respond to client doubts - unlimited vacation is a scam. The deadlines and workload is so much it will make you feel guilty to take leaves as you will lag behind your peers during performance reviews

As post-Floyd product demand has risen, employees are expected to cover expanded workload without additional staffing. Excessive work has resulted in staff departure, creating increased demand on staff who stay to backfill open roles; there is no support from management and 12-16 hour days are common to meet these sales support demands. Management enjoys the benefits of flex PTO, while front line staff are chastised for taking off for a medical appointment due to the aforementioned demands. Managers routinely take multiple weeks off throughout the year, while front line have not been afforded the "privilege" of an actual vacation week for years as we;r expected to be available if we are even approved time off. For context, most of my non-management team has not been afforded more than a handful of non-sequential days off in years.
