Pros

There weren’t many positives to working for Maxar. But to name a few, there were some nice people there, there were some nice company get togethers, the work was occasionally interesting.

Cons

The downsides for working for Maxar were many. It was frustrating working for that company. Years of poor management depleted the talent pool and the company was held together by a shoe string of people that knew how to do the job. The company suffered financially because the super stars left and that created big holes. Imagine playing football with 7 people on your side of the field with a coach that talks good but had no tactics and that’s how it was like working at Maxar.

Pros

I absolutely love working with my team. My manager is fully supportive of my professional development and consistently advocates for me. A good bit of the work has been helpful in terms of skill development, too. My department seems to have its act together to a reasonable extent and my colleagues are all kind people.

Cons

The CEO is out of touch with the reality of the circumstance his employees are in. He stands in front of the company and tells everyone to act like adults and learn to manage their own budgets, claiming that they're compensated competitively (market research does not support this claim nearly across the board) while he's cashing in on millions of dollars every year (not to mention that promotions/raises were put on hold indefinitely as a result of acquisition). He also advertises values he doesn't live by when making company decisions, which he'll unilaterally do in the absence of other leadership that may oppose him. If I could do it again, his disposition, actions, inappropriate behavior, and general strategic direction would make me seriously reconsider taking a job at Maxar.
