Great opportunity to obtain in depth knowledge about the Affordable Care Act, unprofessional work environment
Pros
Except the fact that this economy is so bad and we all need to work, there are absolutely NO PROS to working for Maximus at the Maryland Health Exchange project.
Cons
I will start with the management team who are disrespectful, rude and inappropriate. There are managers on this project that yell at employees as if they are children and then you have a male trainer that addresses female employees as "sweetie" and "baby" in the classroom. There is also an issue of constantly reminding employees who are hired by temp agencies that they are expendable. Comments like "It only takes a phone call for you to be fired" are the norm at the Maryland Health Exchange. There are not enough computers or work space to accommodate the number of people working there and the training process is unorganized and extremely condensed. I will not even begin to comment on how loose the management team is with their use of profanity.
