Pros

- I’m surrounded by smart and genuinely caring people. My colleagues are awesome and part of the reason I’ve been at Maxwell for so long. - I have lots of independence in my day-to-day work and my leadership team and colleagues trust in and support me. - Coworkers show lots of appreciation for a job well done. - The company promotes transparency and honesty and the leadership team walks the walk. - I’m constantly exposed to many parts of the complex, healthcare industry, which makes building product a rewarding challenge. - Health and fringe benefits are very generous and hours are flexible. I’ve been able to take time off work to deal with family issues last minute, because my manager understands that family comes first.

Cons

- Maxwell is a startup and it’s natural for the company to go through ups and downs while trying to figure out their business strategy. Admittedly the company has changed their approach several times over the past year or two, but it’s always been after solid data analysis and weighing options. I think it’s a positive that leadership it willing to make changes quickly for the benefit of the company and is not unusual behavior for a company at this stage. - Sometimes work/life balance can be hard when it’s peak OE season, but coworkers are there to help out when you’re overwhelmed.

Pros

I've worked at a lot of places over the years so I've developed a strong sense of "red flags" over my time. Before I accepted a position at Maxwell I wanted to meet the founders because I've learnt the hard way that the culture of a company generally starts from the top down. Luckily for me the founders at Maxwell are both incredible and honestly, truly, want to build an amazing company that makes benefits better in America. They are both incredibly passionate about Maxwell, and the mission, and they live up to their own values constantly. If you're reading this you probably already know how rare that is, and how often values disappear when money is on the table. This is not the case at Maxwell and it makes me proud to be here. The other big pro (and when it comes down to it what else really matters) are the people at Maxwell. Incredibly smart, hard working, and just downright nice people surround me every day I'm at work and it's a constant pleasure to work with them. Everyone is genuinely committed to doing whatever it takes for our customers and I've witnessed people really going out on a limb to help in any way they can. Oh, and a minor point but we're starting to build up a really strong remote work culture which I personally think is incredibly important.

Cons

I honestly don't have a huge amount to write about here. Our problems are similar to any company of this age and size, some tech debt to fight, struggles to get conference rooms because we've grown so fast, and touchy wifi! Nothing major to complain about.
