Pros

> Some teams are very dedicated to their work and try to create a positive culture of work. > Some individuals have great knowledge of the managed care space and provide value to the clients. > Senior leadership is very accessible and open to suggestions. > Good flexibility on work hours and remote work is rarely an issue. > Great growth over the past few years. > Creativity and different approaches are encouraged.

Cons

> Many (if not all) teams work in silos. > First impression is key, as the culture does not encourage staff to give all employees a second chance. Many employees are sometimes cast aside because they are labeled as not valuable regardless of a lack of on-boarding or appropriate training. This leads to gaps in staff capacity sometimes putting the business at risk. > Management team is very inconsistent: some are great, smart people, while others (managers for unknown reasons) mostly use you and then set you up for failure once you are not useful for them anymore. > Lack of junior level employees (due to mysterious promotion strategy: threaten to leave and you will be promoted)

Pros

The culture is lovely; I feel like part of a team. I love seeing people encouraged to try on new roles, which are available because of the small size. There are some smart people here, too! The location, right on Route 22, is convenient. Work/life balance is encouraged.

Cons

Some growing pains; everyone needs to take on the process so there's consistency across all accounts.

Pros

A part of Publicis, which allows for generous PTO and benefits Provides decent work life balance Some teams are very positive and collaborative

Cons

Due to the incompetency of senior management, 80% of business was placed within one book of business. Client could not rely on the strategic lead assigned and added to the demise of the business. Due to the loss in business, incompetency of senior leadership and terrible business model, hardworking talent was let go. Additionally, the agency now is without a Managing Director, SVP of Client Service and a Creative Director. The little culture that we did have has been crushed and the morale is severely low. Individuals making decisions “at the top” currently don’t seem to understand what they are doing and are floundering in the process. People who are currently making decisions do not seem qualified or have the experience to make this agency successful again. Individuals within Maxcess being trusted to be informants for corporate are incompetent, unprofessional and not trustworthy--only looking out for their own job. What is currently going on in this agency is to say the least, heartbreaking. The issues are at the top. Get the right Managing Director in the seat, build a strong foundation and groom/build your junior/mid level employees--damage has already been done because of leaderships ineptitude.
