Pros

Some leaders are cool, and they get on your side if you have a personal issue.

Cons

Micromanagement, they focus more on seeing hours worked even if the work has no value. As an automation engineer, they asked us to automate 100% of the test cases, even though we only reused 15% or 20% for regression. When they were going to migrate the website to another tool, they still made us work on the site that was going to become obsolete because we couldn't be without work. They could have put us to learn some tool or technology in our free time instead.

All the work we do has value. We are constantly assessing new technologies and prototyping solutions, sometime in parallel with existing technologies. This may be misconstrued as busy work, but serves a very specific purpose in terms of evaluating the efficacy of new platforms, as well as contingency options to support the ongoing needs of the business in the event the experimental technology does not come to fruition.

micromanaging company with time trackers and inefficient systems

Pros

- work is challenging - there are kind people working there

Cons

- the company uses Activtrak which takes a screenshot of and logs everything that you do in your laptop. - the company tracks employees' productivity and unproductivity. - a lot of their systems are redundant and a time waster. They have multiple "productivity" systems that basically do the same thing (e.g., Work Planner) - bosses are micromanagers. They watch if you are away in Teams and will call you out if your productive hours are low - the office does not smell nice. It smells musty and unpleasant. - they hold these townhalls to "listen" and "address" employee feedback but they will just defend the management's decisions even though most employees are unhappy with the policies - it's evident that the company doesn't trust its employees given the heavy usage of invasive time trackers - the company hates WFH and they urge their employees to always go to the office. However, they do not make an effort to ease the burden of working on site (no free lunch, no pantry snacks) - no work-life balance, you have to attend meetings after office hours and even at night - they are now obsessed with AI which might mean that they'll be laying off employees soon once they have developed their AI agents to automate tasks and workflows

As a financial institution, Axos operates within a highly regulated environment that requires strong controls around data security, productivity, and compliance. The tools referenced in your review are implemented to support these obligations and to ensure consistency, transparency, and protection of both employees and the organization. They are not intended to signal a lack of trust, but rather to meet regulatory and operational requirements common within the industry. We regularly assess our systems and workflows to reduce redundancy and improve efficiency, and we continue to invest in technology, including responsible use of AI to support employees, not replace them. Any changes to tools or processes are evaluated carefully with business continuity and long‑term workforce needs in mind.
