Pros

None pros. I guess a check but that is all

Cons

Worst experience ever. I worked one year and it felt like 10. My mental health deteriorated dramatically. Stay away. Management is terrible and it is not a place for people trying to grow a career or learn.

Pros

There are occasionally opportunities for professional development (unfortunately these newly acquired skills don't translate to higher pay...just more workload and less work/life balance) but the cons far outweigh the pros.

Cons

The only reward one gets for doing your job well, is more work. No words of encouragement or praise. Just more work. No matter which department you go to, you will be underpaid and have terrible benefits. Management will constantly tell you that they are looking into making sure that everyone is paid the market rate but these are just empty promises. Don't fall for them. Every single company I interviewed for before leaving Maximus, I always requested 20% more and I always got interviews. That's so sad. I regret staying for as long as I did. Don't even get me started on the amount of micromanaging. If you ever choose to work there, lets hope you never have to use the bathroom.

Pros

Lots of opportunity to grow in project management and data analysis

Cons

Training wasn't super organized when I started, but they implemented a new system. A lot of the employees have spent there whole careers there so trying to implement change can be challenging.
