Pros

State projects at MAXIMUS observe both federal and state holidays. Locations spread across the country. A good environment for those who thrive on "under pressure" situations.

Cons

Management is disorganized and micro-manages every project. More time is spent preparing status than getting work done. The company operates with little to no knowledge sharing, everyone is constantly re-inventing the wheel. Company focus is on profitability, not employee well being, happiness at work, or professional improvement. No career advancement opportunity. Under-qualified individuals often get hired with lower salaries to fill positions for "less."
