Axon’s Mission

Our mission is to Protect Life, and it permeates everything we do. At Axon, employees work to solve societal issues and are a part of something that is truly life changing. With our moonshot goal to cut gun-related deaths between police and the public by 50% in 10 years, our employees will not only save lives, but they will also have an opportunity to change the fabric and the culture of our country and beyond. Providing our employees the tools and resources to allow them to thrive throughout isn’t optional, it is mission critical.

Axon’s Transparency with Employees

Our employees tell us how they value our leadership’s transparency, and our executives value employee’s candor with them. Our President holds quarterly AMAs that allow every person in the company to anonymously submit questions and vote on questions to be answered. These AMAs last 2-3 hours and cover every type of question no matter how big or small. This gives employees the opportunity to give direct feedback to leadership and Axon an opportunity to be fully transparent in everything we do.

Justice, Equity, Diversity, and Inclusion (JEDI) at Axon

At Axon, we firmly believe that protecting life and accelerating justice begins by placing JEDI at the core of our endeavors.

To help us achieve our vision, we’re defining concrete strategies to serve as a catalyst for developing an inclusive mindset and high-performance culture. This includes new focuses on learning and development, corporate social responsibility, community engagement, supplier diversity and more.

“Our JEDI program is evolving to match our mission-driven culture,” said Yemi Akisanya, Vice President of JEDI. “This allows us to focus our efforts and support Axon's global workplace culture and the overall experience of our incredible global team. By doing so, we will drive innovation, enhance collaboration, and make a positive impact on the diverse and global communities we serve.”
