Exciting Place!!!

Pros

Very energetic group! Nearly everyone is laser focused on doing everything they can toward executing on vision and that kind of alignment is very rare in most organizations. There is always something to learn and colleagues are supportive toward achieving results. The CEO brings a great deal of positive thinking that sets the tone for those that are paying attention. There are also some great recent hires that bring great value and experience to the existing team.

Cons

The place is trying to mature itself and that process can feel uncomfortable for junior colleagues. Individuals that can visualize the result of the transformation will do well and those that dwell in doubt will inevitably fall short. For people that want to really grow themselves, this is an exciting and rewarding period of bringing a business out of the cash burning investment phase and into the profitably scaling business phase, but this is not for everyone.

Thank you for your note. As Maxwell grows, we're going to continue to evolve our processes and systems to meet the needs of our clients and our team. We'll get a lot of things right and sometimes we'll make mistakes. My hope and expectation is that we'll build upon our successes and learn from our shortcomings, with a constant eye on getting better every day. Veer P.S. Yep, it's true. I'm a glass half full kind of person. Solving big problems is hard! A healthy dose of positive energy helps me power through the day. Hopefully it rubs off a bit now and then.

Great Culture, Laid Back atmosphere

Pros

- They don't skimp on equipment, you're supplied anything and everything you need to get your job done, which was a surprise considering most companies just hand you an old Windows desktop. - The interview process was pleasant and I never felt like I was being judged like I did at some other companies. They were always 100% transparent with me when I asked questions and honestly cared about whether I'd be happy with my role. - The kitchen is always fully stocked, lunch is catered or supplied quite often, we have daily walks, pushup competitions, weekly team gatherings, dinners, quarterly retreats, and in general everyone seems to be friends, not just coworkers. - You're never given busy-work and will likely be an important addition to the team you join regardless of your role since we're so busy. If this is a con for you then you probably won't like working here. - Last but not least, the benefits. I won't write it all down but check out the corporate site to read up. Gym memberships, travel costs, full health coverage, fitbits, etc. Definitely makes up for any salary differences you may have.

Cons

- Interviewees may notice that the process is a bit longer than most companies. If you got an interview consider yourself lucky, because you probably scored the only 45 minute period that person may have had that week. Also, if you're stuck on the couch for a while, chat up the people near you, they're likely genuinely interested in what you're there for and can probably give you some good information. - If you're used to having a cubicle and laser focus then you may have a difficult time acclimating. Computers are about a foot apart from each other here and you'll be able to overhear people talk easily. Everyone still gets their work done with headphones and breakout rooms, but it's worth mentioning. - The company is growing ridiculously fast, so you won't be "the new guy" for long (if at all) and will be thrown into your work pretty quickly. Not a huge con, but once again, worth mentioning.

Thank you for your note. Transparency and open communication is very important to us. I don't think it's possible to build a great company without it. Veer

Bound to fail

Pros

Good hours, fancy office. Free health benefits for full time permanent employees.

Cons

Poor mid level leadership, clearly chosen based on connections as opposed to experience. My supervisor did not even understand the job the people who worked under performed, and was a ‘remote’ manager. Similar to other startups that grow and fail, they’re focusing too much on pretending to be elite instead of actually having a good product and service.

We appreciate you taking the time to write a review. It concerns me to hear you feel you had a disconnect with your direct manager. I would welcome a chance to discuss and understand your experience at Maxwell. Kathy
