Mactus Group Reviews

1) Follow-on engagements: Mactus needs to work more proactively and systematically to find follow-on engagements prior to the end of your current engagement. In my case, it was clear that little effort had been made to identify follow-on opportunities. 2) Vacation: a clause in the Mactus employment contract states that if you don't take accrued vacation before the end of an engagement, you will lose any earned vacation days. In my case, the workload was so heavy I had no time for vacation during the assignment..I argued my case with management on this issue and was 'given' a few days of earned vacation at the end of an engagement, with the message that management was doing me a 'favor'. 3) Pay for work done: your contract also states that if the client doesn't pay Mactus for your work, you will in turn not be paid--even if (as was the case with me) you did the work on time, and the client acknowledged that the work was of high quality.

The company is poorly managed by a self-important president, who does not believe rules apply to him, and who has a serious case of ADD when it comes to the focus he places on his company. It is unstable and feels very much like a start up, though it has been in business almost 10 years. In a year, the office has turned over 13 employees!!!
