Good company for working - DevOps Consultant Axcelinno Employee Review

The team at Axcelinno is the most caring, hardworking group of individuals I have ever worked with. They also truly care about each member of the team growing and present amazing feedback to everyone. The team is also great at making time to answer questions and ensure your success. In this role, you get to experience how a lot of different organizations work, an experience that is not found in many other roles. It allows individuals to build new relationships and foster current ones. This company truly works to deliver success not only to clients but to everyone in the organization.

There are some days with very long hours, depending on the situation/one's ability to deliver. There does not appear to be a ton of work-life balance. However, due to only working part time, it is important to note that the organization has been willing to accommodate flexibility with my schedule as I am currently finishing up a degree.

The pros were pretty surface-level aka getting to travel for company events, client dinners, and maybe the WFH flexibility (but even that got micromanaged eventually). I formed a close group of friends out of my coworkers because as they say, tragedy bonds.

There is an extremely high turnover rate here. The company has only ever had about 15 employees and we saw ~20 people quit or get fired within about 1.5 years. I'm writing this review so no one is shocked about what they're getting into. I'm sure it is the type of place that works for some people, but the majority should look elsewhere. I would consider the environment to be extremely toxic. Almost every employee I know has cried due to what management has said or done to them. They can be emotionally abusive and micromanaging. I don't know if there is an actual business plan for the future. The commission structure changes without your knowledge. At the time, there is no true incentive to work hard. Management began stealing accounts from their own team and not paying commission to "teach a lesson". Positive reinforcement will not be found. It has been said that they "don't believe in it". You will get condescending messages late into the evening/weekend about what you didn't do correctly. At one time, the team thought we could change things and brought up our concerns. They were all dismissed and we truly felt like we were being gaslighted by our own company for feeling so discouraged about something that management wouldn't admit was true.
