Pros

Keep up the good work. If you ever have time to make your rounds, you should visit, especially the East Coast centers, and evaluate company sites and have a 360 degree evaluation from all comers - managers, leads, employees, and maintenance personnel to grab the really value hidden these walls to determine why the morale and lousy work environment this really is.

Cons

In the interview, they advertised two, 15 minute breaks but in reality, you only get one, 15 minute break on Wed, Thurs and Fri. Breaks are eliminated completely on Mon and Tues when the calls are back-to-back. This company does not pay for overtime and rather rather send you home than have to pay you time and half. Now you are lucky if you get 32 hours a work week. (Cheap). This company sees employees come and go as frequently as a revolving door - they even advertise it on your Outlook when someone leaves. Early this year, they let 16 people go in one day and this is not an exaggeration.

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.
