Pros

Not much, you get paid.

Cons

The work to life balance is rally bad if you are an employee. One Manager said he likes to hire people and pay them for 40 hours, then work them for 60. There is no job security at all. Employees or a contractors, they will get rid of you to save a buck. Maximus it truly a sweat shop.

Pros

There were a lot of really nice people who worked here. Trainers and certain supervisors were helpful and easy to work with. You also get to learn a lot about health insurance application processing, which is good on the resume. The job itself was easy. Nice schedule.

Cons

The worst thing about this job was the working conditions. You're crammed into a giant room with no windows sharing a little cubicle with another person. It was hard to focus on work when you are surrounded by so many people. Some supervisors were extremely immature, they can be seen running around gossiping, walking around with their phones out (which is against policy), and overall acting unprofessional. If you work hard here, people won't like you. Hard workers aren't appreciated here or recognized, maybe supervisors or upper positions were. Many people have been temps for over two years. I also saw bias on many occasions. Certain people would get written up, while others wouldn't. I knew someone who got written for listening to music on her phone, when our whole team did this.

Pros

Depends on team and the people who you work with

Cons

>> The less we talk about this company the better. This review is not about its call center business, but about its IT operations "Maximus Federal" >> If you are working for a client and the project extension is delayed, you are not paid. What if all the employees resign, are they going to hire new ones and send as replacement, once the contract is awarded. >> Lay off immediately after a project is finished, unless the employee finds a suitable position at a different client / with in the organization in a short span. >> No health insurance for the first couple of months when you join this organization (No talented people would join here). All companies strive to take care of their employees, here it is the other way.
