Pros

As long as you keep your head down and don't make waves, you COULD have a reasonable chance at job security.

Cons

It becomes obvious that the higher the status, the more you run into those playing shady office politics. Management builds cliques of those willing to lick boots and those who refuse find themselves banished to the land where your hopes and dreams or furthering your career...die. It's a high school level of maturity and mentality infestation. Don't bother trying to make anything better or you'll find yourself, on the curb with your office in a box, bewildered as to what happened.

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.
