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).
