Maximus job reviews

Best thing
It's a job you can leave at work, your time off is unlikely to be interrupted by after hours calls or emails.
Worst thing
A truly inhumane expectation of productivity. If possible, they will have you on-task 100% of your workday that's not a legally mandated break or lunch period. They'll promote you, then expect you to do the work of your previous level as well as your current, then the same again, and expect you to do both levels below you and your current work. The conditions are mentally and emotionally exhausting and merciless.
