Business outlook
Pros
Smart and creative colleagues. Job security. Work-life balance. Hybrid telework. Good benefits. Can move around the agency.
Cons
Pay isn’t competitive with market. Hard to get promoted. Easy to get pigeonholed into roles and specializations. Some colleagues are too laid back. Very political. Very bureaucratic and there are often 8+ levels of review on simple matters. Slow.
