Pros

Not a single thing is positive at this company.

Cons

Poor management, they don’t fire people at this company meaning, SLT will be rotated until teams/offices complain and then they’re moved onto another office. Regular redundancies - adding workload unto the employment advisor who already has minimal time to spend with the participants. Meeting KPIs at Maximus means the participants will not be supported. In order to meet these KPIs, 30 minute meetings are squashed into 5-15 minutes. This company is unable to meet DWP demands. The goal isn’t to help participants and disadvantaged people, it’s to meet KPIs. I was recommended this role by a friend as they were aware that the company hires people easily, which is a warning for the wise! They know who this is and I’m glad I left this company as soon as I could.

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

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.
