Three cool things:
- This year’s annual summer party for the New York office included a scavenger hunt, a sail around New York City and a happy hour finale.
- Offers fully paid maternity and paternity leave, and one medical plan option is fully paid for by the company for employees and dependents.
- Recognizes birthdays on the company’s intranet, and employees celebrating a 10-year work anniversary receive a crystal trophy.
Employees say:
- “Aksia has an incredibly intelligent group of people but without egos commonly found at peer organizations. Everyone is aligned to work together, and there’s no public company pressure to meet quarterly targets, which allows for longer-term strategic thinking and planning.”
- “People get involved in the Aksia community. A lot of professionals, even senior ones, are very involved in our M.S. 582 chess program (at a New York City public school) or softball team.”
- “This is a company comprised of people who truly care, not just about their clients, but also their employees. It's an entrepreneurial organization — people can pursue topics that are interesting to them and can get involved in strategic firm initiatives early on in their career.”
