Pros

- The bank is situated in one of the best locations in San Diego, so commuting won't be a problem as there is a metro station just outside the building complex. - I see potential for growth as they are opening new offices all over California, which results in a lot of overhead for the IT department.

Cons

- Micromanagement: You are required to work from 8:00 AM to 5:00 PM, 9 hours every day, regardless of any changes scheduled at night. You must also complete those tasks and be available the next day at 8:30 AM to provide updates daily. You will be randomly added to meetings, and if you're unavailable, you’ll be questioned about why you didn’t join the call. - Lack of personal growth: There is no opportunity for personal growth here because upper management engages in favoritism. They openly identify their "left and right hand" employees, so no matter what you do, the credit goes to their favorite employee. - Outdated office space: The office space and desks are very old, with a vibe reminiscent of the 1980s. On my first day, I was given used accessories, and I later found hair remnants on the used headphones. While the building complex is well-maintained by the Irvine Company, the individual office space is rusty, outdated, and has a strange smell. - Lack of office perks: If you're looking for a well-managed kitchen with free food or a few perks, this is not the place. The only amenities available are a coffee machine and a vending machine where you have to pay for snacks. I stayed here for over a month but decided to leave because I couldn't see myself staying longer. The average employee stays less than a year before leaving for all the reasons mentioned above. All current employees, except for higher management, are new, so they will likely leave eventually as well.

Axos supports career growth and advancement opportunities from within. We implemented an extensive learning and development platform to help expand your knowledge base. It would be difficult to take advantage of our professional development opportunities with only one month of employment. While remote work offers convenience and flexibility for some, our organization strongly believes that working in-office fosters collaboration, innovation, and a sense of community that is difficult to replicate in a virtual environment.

Pros

Pay was decent and benefits fair.

Cons

The behavior from certain individuals was appalling and outright unprofessional, creating a hurtful atmosphere that felt completely unnecessary. Efforts to contribute or improve were often dismissed, leaving no sense of value in the role. Communication was chaotic and lacked respect, leading to constant frustration. It seemed like nobody cared about teamwork or collaboration, which was disappointing.
