As a very unhappy former Minimax client, I have to heartily disagree with the other reviewer. In my experience with this firm, it became apparent that they lack depth of knowledge in statistics. Further, the work is sloppy and careless. \r
\r
But you don't have to take my word for it. Check them out yourself. If you are in the area, swing by their offices (turns out they are not a big swanky firm like their website makes it seem)\r
\r
Just be cautious!\r
\r
Before using Minimax for any work, ask for references. Ask to see projects that they have worked on that are very similar to your project, and ask for names and numbers of people that you can speak to.\r
\r
It makes sense to check them out as much as possible before giving them your money. \r
\r
If you do decide to use them, don't pay the whole fee upfront. Once they have your money they are unresponsive. Notice how they don't accept credit cards? It's very convenient that there is no way to reverse charges or reclaim any of your fee.
Cons: sloppy, late, slick liars
