Pros of working at Axonius

For me the pros of axonius are to meet different cultures, since they have people from lots of countries, Brazil guys are awesome.

Cons of working at Axonius

In my experience axonius is not a really good place to work, the worst part is the unexperience of the managers overall, they seem not to understand software very well, and yet they carry a strong sense of proud, based on nothing. Toxic environment by the end.

Axonius benefits

Salary for sure is the best perk, since they don't have much more.

What do you like best about Axonius's CEO and the leadership team?

I didn't have the chance of meet the CEO so nothing much to say about.

How would you improve Axonius's culture?

I would remove all the directors and team leaders and hire people that understand about software and understand about people. True leaders is what they need not these fake ones.

How does your compensation at Axonius compare to the industry average?

A bit above average.

What's the diversity at Axonius like?

I didn't see any desire of diversity, they have a couple of meetings about it but I had the sense that's just about marketing.

What brings you the most joy at Axonius?

To close the laptop and leave.
