this is not problem at all, it is feature and it is cause unity uses open gl coordinate system not direct x one

Another good way at getting the object to be on the right axis and have the pivot point you want in Unity is to create an "Empty Game Object" and parent that new Game Object to the object. Use the parent as the new pivot point and rotate the child however you want it to lie against that pivot point.

Pivot points are very tricky in Unity and this is the best solution I've found other than creating a script for Unity which would be pretty advanced for an artist.

Check up the top, it should say some combination of LOCAL or GLOBAL and PIVOT or CENTER. Unity should play fine with Maya.
