Thanks for providing feedback. We're glad to hear you appreciated the team, but sorry that other aspects of working at Axos did not meet your expectations. As for our salaries: it's admittedly a tight labor market, but Axos compensation packages are competitive and comprise base salary plus performance-linked bonus. The bonus target for most team members is 20%, but team members who surpass their performance expectations normally exceed their bonus targets. At the end of the day, this is consistent with our meritocratic company culture, in which team members are rewarded on the basis of their accomplishments. If you're concerned about the level of your compensation, consider speaking with your manager about the kinds of initiatives you can undertake to exceed your performance expectations.

Pros

The company’s focus on AI and automation was genuinely valuable. It provided opportunities to learn new skills and stay current with emerging technologies.

Cons

• Workloads were consistently extreme, leaving employees with no real relief or balance • Employees were expected to work excessively long and exhausting hours on a constant basis • Daily expectations were unrealistically high, creating a cycle of stress and disappointment • The environment showed little regard for employee wellbeing or sustainable working conditions • Burnout became a constant risk due to sustained pressure and lack of support • Leadership showed no visible concern for struggling employees and failed to check in or offer help • Communication and support from top leadership were largely absent during periods of high stress • Colleagues were also overwhelmed and overworked, leaving little ability to provide meaningful support • The overall atmosphere created isolation and frustration due to lack of assistance and empathy

Axos operates in a fast-paced, high-performance environment, and expectations are intentionally aligned with the level of impact our teams are driving. At the same time, sustainable performance matters. Teams are structured with defined priorities, and leaders are expected to actively manage capacity, set clear goals, and maintain regular check ins, especially during periods of increased demand. Experiences can vary across teams, and feedback like this helps highlight where execution may not always meet expectations. Maintaining a productive, engaged workforce requires ongoing attention, and leadership remains focused on balancing performance with a sustainable work environment.
