Vantaggi

Great Product, I have some friends who bank with Axos with great things to say about it. Additional I was a part of team where I enjoyed working with my Manager and other team members. Axos offered some good perks as well such great coffee machines and high bonus potential.

Svantaggi

Axos reminds me of Wall Street in the 90s, the culture is very much work long hours and you were always reminded that this was not a 40 hour work environment. However I found that I was put on projects that were just "busy work." Pushing papers just to say that you put in a 60 hour week, because the more hours you work the "harder" you are working. People who did not work extra hours would be called "soft." Additional working with the CEO was like walking on egg shells, everyone was afraid to voice their suggestions because if he was not on-board you were at risk of losing your job. He obviously is a good business man however always need to hear that he was right and never was open to anyone's opinions.

Thank you for taking the time to share your comments. We’re glad to hear both that you enjoyed working with your manager and your team, and that your friends who bank with us like our products and service. We also value continual improvement and constructive feedback in uncovering inefficiencies, but some of the impressions you shared don’t sound representative of our internal culture. The Axos culture is both meritocratic and one that values emotional involvement: by being genuinely and emotionally invested in our work, we create an uplifting environment for ourselves and others. Our culture also values rationality, or fact-based objectivity. At all levels of the Axos environment -- from senior executives to junior members of our team -- decisions are expected to be based not on what we hope is true but on an understanding of the actual facts. It sounds as though our culture may not have been the right fit for you, and we wish you success in the next stage of your career.

Vantaggi

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.

Svantaggi

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.
