      Pros

      There were a lot of career advancement opportunities. I managed to make use of them for quite a while and enjoyed it mostly.

      Cons

      Towards the end of my time there, myself and a number of coworkers started to get less and less work to do. We started to feel like we were just filling seats. We would offer to help other coworkers who had too much work and were told we couldn't help. Things became very different, very quickly, and very cliquey.

      Maximus is unethical with unqualified leaders who are lieing and cheating through the contract.

      Pros

      I had an amazing boss who made work enjoyable but they fired her. It's GEU thankfully so I am protected

      Cons

      I could write a book. Everyone that works here is afraid of losing their jobs because it is a company that is profit driven. Nothing matters others than the bottom line. This company is ruled by fear. There are managers but they are just managers, not leaders. If the client knew what was really happening I can guarantee they would not do business with Maximus Canada in the future.

      Started out great but quickly tanked

      Pros

      Initially I started working for a training department that understood training, the ups and downs and challenges, how important it was, and that supported instructional designers and trainers.

      Cons

      When I got there, everything at this division had been controlled by one person who did not have the scope for the job. A big shakeup happened in management. A number of people were brought in to run several different departments. And quickly, someone young and inexperienced was promoted to a position above his abilities and while he had a different focus, once again, everything become about one focus to the exclusion of all others. And again, since one person can't run all aspects of a company, especially those he doesn't understand, the project was endangered again and went downhill.
