Pluspunten

I enjoyed helping Governments which in turn helps people. I also liked most of the people I worked with.

Minpunten

You are instructed to create yearly goals in different areas but are later told that the goals are handed down from management with no wiggle room. At the end of the year, you have to complete two separate self assessments and then go over them with management. The problem is that raises/promotions/bonuses are all determined before management receives your assessments. Favoritism and luck with getting projects with large budgets are the only determining factors for financial reward for your effort.

Pluspunten

Had a few really exceptional coworkers

Minpunten

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.
