Pros

There's never a dull moment working at Maxwell. If you want a "clock-in, clock-out" job... this one isn't for you. The Maxwell company is mission-driven, therefore every person here is really invested in what they're doing and take their responsibilities seriously. Some core values that are really important to me, which Maxwell has, include transparency, genuine support and care for employees, a high level of energy (both just generally in the office but also in the pace at which we develop our product and company), and a sense of urgency. You'll never feel that your manager isn't listening or doesn't understand here. It really does feel like you're part of a family.

Cons

The stress level can certainly be high (but we're trying to change the world, what do you expect?!). A flip side to the fast pace mentioned above is that you're pretty much constantly juggling priorities and responsibilities, and you certainly won't "end up" where you start with Maxwell (but I think most of our employees look at that as a positive, not a negative, because you control your destiny here for the most part).

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.
