Pros

Good health care, Unlimited Time Off (but you rarely get a chance to use it due to the amount of work you have), and benefits for education and certifications.

Cons

You take on many additional responsibilities to make the project successful, but no one recognizes your hard work. CAREER GROWTH IS A BIG JOKE. Like in any other consulting firm, we are moved from one program to another after the successful completion of a project. At least consulting firms pay top dollars and provide good career growth, whereas in MAXIMUS, it is exactly the opposite. The less we talk about the salaries, the better. Irrespective of which city you live in, if your position is remote, the salary is way less; If you live in a high-cost-of-living city, that is not counted. The pay you see in the Job description includes your annual bonus; do not expect it to be separate. Maximus itself is a contracting firm for the Federal Government. They, in turn, contracted a few of their internal and own projects to other firms.

Pros

Paid Holidays, a good amount of sick pto and regular pto.

Cons

They have been doing a few rounds of layoffs and not hiring new staff. I feel more like a number than an actual person. They removed the incentive program and keep pushing for better numbers, but there is no drive to do so.
