Pros

Pros - your immediate supervisors are some of the best people ever. They are incredibly helpful and fight for you. The job used to be extremely flexible, they let you do your work and as long as you were not careless nobody bothered you. Used to be a great job for a worker who is independent. Traveling was extensive.

Cons

This job has gone extremely downhill within the past year. When corona first hit they tried to say we still had to do home visits. Then when we freaked out they kept us home. Now, the micromanaging is extreme. Just 4 months ago we were told we were getting kudos from OLTL for doing the best we have ever done. Now, they are trying to make us do home visits again and are consistently evading questions about safety that are posed to them. They try to prevent employees from discussing with each other workplace issues, safety issues, etc. More and more work is being piled on us, we are being given less time to complete it, and we are expected to make zero errors while processing 3-4 cases a day. We were actually told we were to be written up if we made a typo while typing someone's SSN. all the while our compensation remains unchanged. We went from "doing the best we have ever done" to upper mgmt being extremely punitive and wanting us to account for every single minute of the day. We are also expected to work through lunch and breaks. Our days are scheduled for us without breaks.

Pros

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.
