Great agency, but diminishing returns for motivated people - Anonymous employee Federal Highway Administration Employee Review

Pros

Don't get me wrong, FHWA is very deserving of their Top Federal Agencies to work for, which is why it is deserving of 4 out of 5 stars. Management is usually very supportive and there is a great team-like atmosphere. They allow for a very flexible work schedule and have a great work-life balance.

Cons

Departments are sometimes silo'd and management may not be supportive if interagency politics are involved. Also, merit-based promotions and rewards are no more than "atta-boys," which can be disheartening when advancing.
