There is no entry fee to the club. It was originally a place for variety shows. Josef Stern was known in the industry for operating multiple dance and go-go clubs in Austria and Croatia. At the time, many of the women who worked in Maxim were students who wanted to earn money while they were on their summer vacations.
The club regularly hires professional dominatrices. In , Maxim Wien closed for few months for renovations.
Despite the club's closure, many employees did not seek employment at other establishments. They resumed working at Maxim Wien once the renovations were complete. Maxim is separated into two parts; a downstairs bar and lounge area and an upstairs area where the rooms are located. The bar offers various alcoholic drinks. Patrons are permitted to buy drinks for the working women. After a patron makes a deal with one of the Maxim women, the patron and the worker proceed to a private room in the upstairs location.
