Pros

Axos is an environment that will push you to challenge the status quo and constantly be looking for opportunities to improve and innovate on the work. This is a unique environment for entry-level/early career individuals because you have the opportunity to make an immediate impact with extensive opportunities for exposure and upward mobility. Management is open and excited to hear fresh and new ideas and people are generally not prohibited from executing and implementing change. Great place to work if you are motivated and want to take ownership of your own success and be in an environment that encourages growth and development.

Cons

No cons. Opportunities are not handed to you simply for showing up each day. Those who want an opportunity to work hard, prove themselves, and grow will find this an engaging and fruitful place to be.

Pros

Only pro here is that certain roles will let you operate above your title, e.g. exposure to sides of the job reserved for senior roles at other firms. 15 days PTO to start is actually not terrible either. Great coworkers depending on your team.

Cons

Too many to list here, but will try. Main issue here is the top-down culture of fear and internal politics, as the entire bank is at the whim of one person. Managers are exclusively concerned with looking good in front of the CEO, and even top SVPs are terrified to be honest with him. SVPs routinely complain about not being able to get comp raises for employees, while simultaneously being terrified to ask. Do not expect your manager to go to bat for you if it in any way involves being assertive. If you want to work for a borderline alt-right CEO who belittles employees openly, this is your spot. The only people that thrive here are those who have never worked elsewhere and do not know what a real company looks like. Looking forward to the HR denial response here too. Some other cons: - Zero WFH allowed - Below market compensation across all roles - Stock bonus vesting schedule that take 4 years to fully vest

Axos is a performance-driven environment with a clear expectation of accountability, transparency, and results at every level. Leaders are expected to advocate for those who are performing on their teams, have direct conversations, and drive outcomes. Many employees thrive in this environment because it provides meaningful responsibility, exposure to leadership, and the opportunity to contribute beyond a narrowly defined role. Compensation and rewards are managed through structured processes aligned to market data, business performance, and individual contribution. Equity programs are designed to promote long-term alignment and retention, which is standard practice across the industry. Our onsite model is intentional and supports collaboration, speed of decision-making, and execution, key differentiators for our business. While that model may not be the right fit for everyone, it is clearly communicated and consistently applied. We continue to focus on attracting and retaining high-performing talent who are motivated by impact, ownership, and the opportunity to build in a fast-paced environment.
