Maximus reviews

When starting the business I asked for instructions on how to complete basic daily administrative tasks essential for audit. I was told by my colleagues and my manager not to bother as "we never do it". Six months later, after figuring out, off my own back how to do it, Head Office comes down like a tonne of bricks on the office stating they have not been done and have failed audit. On top of this I worked with racist, homophobic and disgruntled colleagues who were obnoxious, lazy and didn't give a damn. My line manager refused to verify my work as he was too lazy. This meant that although I was exceeding my target by at least 25% each month, my figures were only showing that I was achieving between 10-50% of my target. This affected my bonus and most importantly my morale and was what led me to look elsewhere for a role. I am now earning double what I was paid at Maximus, and am given more autonomy and respect, as well as consistently achieving my targets and being recognised. They lost a good worker in me, and many of my highly qualified and hard-working colleagues also left due to the absolutely shocking treatment.

Leadership is very biased, favortism is rampant. The company has no problem lying about what is going on. There is no guarantee of a job.... there is always the threat of "losing the contract" and the center shutting down. High up leadership is constantly changing so there is no consistency. Metrics focus changes weekly. Morale is very very low throughout the center. Getting promoted has nothing to do with your ability, just who you are friends with in leadership.
