Pros

The only pro is getting federal holidays off

Cons

It seems like not one person knows what is going on. Things change on a daily basis and they expect you to make these insane quotas, they are not about their employees they are about the numbers. The turnover is the worst I have ever seen. Forget going to HR with a problem either because they will not help you. My manager is probably the worst, I don't think anything that gets said is ever the truth. They will write you up for nothing. This place is a joke, I can't wait to get out of here.

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.
