Pros

The pay is pretty good compared to the rest of VA. Flexible work arrangements are nice and assist with work/life balance. Development opportunities are also nice with Six Sigma and project management classes offered. Will learn a lot about the corporate world and being a professional. You will also have the opportunity to work with many personality types. This assists you in developing the necessary networking and communication skills to be successful and maintain good relationships with your coworkers.

Cons

Very competitive. Each year it gets harder and harder to achieve the higher ratings. Makes the associates feel that they must compromise on work life balance to maintain or get ahead.

Pros

Benefits, compensation and paid time off.

Cons

Inconsistency in treatment of employees - favoritism runs rampant, and those who kiss up really do get ahead, while those who knuckle down and work hard are passed over. Also, inconsistency between departments is appalling. While COF has been recognized by Working Mother, I have only known 1 person in 3 departments who has been able to work a flexible schedule. In my current department, I was turned down flat without any reasoning why, and the person who was allowed just gets promoted more.
