Pros

Constantly varied environment, easy to get hired.

Cons

High turnover, revolving door. Goals and targets always moving, thanks to overly excitable owner (equally volatile). Nothing gets done or improved for this reason. This company has not grown due to the constant flux of staff and direction changes. Maxwell IT sells services that it cannot provide due to their failing infrastructure, but the owner forbids employees from telling clients. Unethical business practices all around. You will be expected to work/monitor 7 days a week and over vacations.

Maxwell IT Response
8y
The nature of our industry demands people who are flexible, resilient, responsive and can manage concurrent projects. I believe you came into the business during a period of hectic activity, and I can see by your review that I didn’t adequately prepare you for the tempo of work. For that, I must apologize. You deserved a better experience as a part of the Maxwell IT team. While I am open to critique and will accept blame for my shortcomings, I must take issue with your claims that my business practices are unethical or that I withhold information from clients. Personal and professional integrity are incredibly important to me, and I would never knowingly mislead a client or employee. If you saw or heard something that you felt was unethical, I wish you would have brought it to my attention. I can promise that I’m nowhere as volatile as you think I am.
