Pros

Interesting work. Lots of opportunities. Govie benefits.

Cons

Politics are terrible. Couldn't get mid-level management to understand impacts of poor decisions or the reasons to make an informed decision. Good ol' boy network. Promotions based on who, not what, you know and reflects in management decision process. Contractor input put before 40 years govie experience.

Pros

Great co-workers. Lots of time off

Cons

Poor senior leadership lacks effectiveness. Promotion decisions prioritize diversity objectives over merit, with less qualified junior personnel (mostly female) advanced to Band 4 and Band 5 positions ahead of more qualified candidates. Additionally, daily workloads are insufficient to fill an 8-hour shift.
