Pros

Working at home seemed ok, until I started working on my own time.

Cons

You definitely need a better IT department. Your incompetency in this area was 1 reason for leaving. Not understanding why other browsers are on a secure website? You definitely don't deserve government contracts. #2 Supervisor roles- lets just say if you don't have a supervisor that actually explains things, what does the rest of the team look like? You expect to continue to obtain other contracts? Yelling in chat +40 font doesn't resolve anything. Not only that but hire a supervisor that doesn't downgrade other team members to you, unprofessional. If the state only knew.

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.
