Pros

I enjoyed the job itself and my direct team, and this was a good role for me to get into the human services field, they do hire people without much experience. Pretty sure the starting pay has gone up since I was there, around $18 an hour or more. Decent place to get experience but wouldn't recommend a long term career there. Was nice to help families avoid eviction or get out of doubled up housing situations into their own place.

Cons

Very cliquey, and lots of rules and regulations, staff from other departments could be very gossipy and cause issues, and upper management enforced a lot of stringent expectations. Noticed a lot of staff would talk down to clients though, which was sad to me. They are also very concerned about audits and about the state's goals and expectations, which also dictates salary. Not much vacation or sick time, insurance is meh.

Pros

Maximus is a good company overall. My first 2 projects were great. Salary is decent. However, the trainer is the only person on the team that is ineligible for bonuses. Growth opportunities are there if you get the right eyes on you. Health insurance is free although it is a high deductible plan so its hard to use.

Cons

The third is the absolute worst. Leadership is weak and get ran over by the client. There is no support to employees. The client gaslights Maximus. I have work PTSD now.
