Pros

The people were amazing and are very talented Casual office environment The ability to work remote Great benefits Founders want to build an amazing company and are passionate about the mission The work was fun and challenging Did I mention the people?

Cons

Trust. There was not one senior leader you could go to that would hold anything in confidence. Senior leaders did try to promote a transparent environment, but you were frowned upon if you shared feedback they didn't want to hear. On the positive side, I didn't find this to be the case with some middle management. Cancerous gossip that was not stopped seemingly due to personal relationships Favoritism from senior leaders; there is a trend with this feedback.

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.
