AXIOS Compensation Employee Reviews

What is the best part about your compensation package?

A lot of PTO and a lot of health insurance options

Review from Legal Dept

The pay is great and the ancillary benefits are very nice. I do sometimes wish that I was closer to the Arlington office to get to use some of the benefits associated with that as well though.

Review from Legal Dept

The totality of the comp + benefits

Review from Executive Dept

I think they offer competitive compensation

Review from Operations Dept

Stock options were the best part of my compensation package.

Review from Operations Dept

Floating holidays and quarterly personal days.

Review from Legal Dept

Fair compensation for the market.

Review from Executive Dept

The work from home policy

Review from Executive Dept

Stock options have long term benefits

Review from Operations Dept

Bonus is paid quarterly for me

Review from Operations Dept

I like the mental health days and WFH stipend.

Review from HR Dept

PTO and other time off

Review from HR Dept

I like my base pay. I'd be happy with more but what I am paid for my length of time here is fair.

Review from HR Dept

The best part would be the benifits package

Review from Operations Dept

They paid covered my flights money so I could spend time with my dying mother in the UK. Then they paid for my flights so I could attend her funeral the following month.

They are very comprehensive and offer multiple options to people. They have great add-ons that focus on mental health.

Review from Customer Success Dept

The benefits are representative of what matters to employees today, not just the same old same.

Review from HR Dept

everyone gets equity in the company

Work from home stipend, equity, and work life balance.

Review from HR Dept

mental health benefits are plentiful

Review from HR Dept

Why do you feel undervalued and what would make you feel better about your compensation?

We are underpaid compared to our direct competitors in the industry, and without a 401K Match system (and no more stock options) our compensation package does not stand up well. We've lost candidates due to this very issue.

Review from Operations Dept

I'm currently performing the same duties as others on my team who are paid more than me.

If there were a level of transparency across my team to understand why other team members are given certain titles/compensation compared to others, that would be helpful. As it stands now, it seems as though I am doing the same duties + tasks as team members with higher titles + salaries.

Review from Customer Success Dept

Just make it a bit higher!
