Pros

I am a “Generalist” which essentially means I have to know how to do everything. The workloads are impossible. The technology just makes work more difficult. I understand why the public is frustrated with the agency and the employees are the punching bags for the public.It’s impossible to not be stressed out at this job unless you adopt an attitude of not caring. Actively working on leaving in order to preserve my sanity. Already started anxiety meds and that’s not enough. Avoid.

Cons

See above describing cons. Pros are leave time because this job will make you really need it.

Pros

flexibility, teleworking, pay, and holidays off cool work environment.

Cons

Everything's on a quota, heavy workload, dealing with irritated claimants—it's not really a legal job.
