Pros

It does not matter what team you are on within the organization, everyone is extremely motivated, kind, respectful, and willing to work together to solve problems. Most, if not everyone, is very open-minded to receiving feedback and working through problems, even if you disagree. There is very much a common thread, that is set by the management team, to move together towards toward a common goal. The most important part of that is knowing what our goal is in the first place. The management team as done a great job sharing information freely and setting clear expectations!

Cons

The company has gotten big enough, that a lot of decisions and the process of coming to a decision, are largely done outside the context of most people. There is a LOT of information floating around, either about different aspects of the product, a process, or detailed information about something that is not shared. It is hard to piece together what people are working on and how much overlap / pre-existing work has been done. They need to do a better job of knowledge management and sharing information about day to day work, as they do a good job already of the high level goals.

Thank you for the note. I really appreciate the feedback around providing more clarity and context about day to day work. As we get bigger, this is harder to do, of course, And, conversely, as we get bigger, it's even more important to do well! This is important and we can work on it. Veer

Pros

I've worked at a lot of places over the years so I've developed a strong sense of "red flags" over my time. Before I accepted a position at Maxwell I wanted to meet the founders because I've learnt the hard way that the culture of a company generally starts from the top down. Luckily for me the founders at Maxwell are both incredible and honestly, truly, want to build an amazing company that makes benefits better in America. They are both incredibly passionate about Maxwell, and the mission, and they live up to their own values constantly. If you're reading this you probably already know how rare that is, and how often values disappear when money is on the table. This is not the case at Maxwell and it makes me proud to be here. The other big pro (and when it comes down to it what else really matters) are the people at Maxwell. Incredibly smart, hard working, and just downright nice people surround me every day I'm at work and it's a constant pleasure to work with them. Everyone is genuinely committed to doing whatever it takes for our customers and I've witnessed people really going out on a limb to help in any way they can. Oh, and a minor point but we're starting to build up a really strong remote work culture which I personally think is incredibly important.

Cons

I honestly don't have a huge amount to write about here. Our problems are similar to any company of this age and size, some tech debt to fight, struggles to get conference rooms because we've grown so fast, and touchy wifi! Nothing major to complain about.
