My job at MAXIMUS was good as an entry-level position after college, but I would not recommend it for experienced folks. - Business Analyst Maximus Employee Review

Pros

They are in a very lucrative market in providing healthcare services for state governments, so there is a lot of job security with MAXIMUS.

Cons

MAXIMUS does not encourage innovation or do a decent job providing stimulating work for their empoyees. Their management is stodgy, very old-school, and the culture is 'conventional corporate'. They do not have any clear defined paths for career mobility unfortunately and many people there are generally unhappy working at MAXIMUS.

Remote, adequate training and guidance and usually everything /software works - minus regular hiccups.

Cons

Not too many - a few misunderstanding s about training classes and roles but overall, not bad.

Pros

Had a few really exceptional coworkers

Cons

One reason I was hired was to bring in new ideas and work approaches; however, when I tried implementing anything new, some of the “old school higher-ups” would balk and were never open to anything new or better. My management just looked the other way and didn’t support me. As for training, I wasn’t offered much in the way of onboarding other than being told to read a lengthy “standard operating procedures” document. No real opportunities were offered to shadow anyone so I could learn in real-time. A typical work week was 60+ hours and often stretched to 70+. It was exhausting and demoralizing. The job was not sustainable and I’ve never been more relieved to be done with a place. I cannot recommend Maximus as a place to grow your skills or to give your time. Turnover seems to be relatively high at Maximus and there are far better places to work.
