Pros

Stable employment with great benefits and work hours. Manager if very respectful of the work-home life balance when allowing time-off.

Cons

Under-performing employees don't get reprimanded, or trained to become better employees making the work environment toxic at times. Low staffing makes more work for existing employees which contributes to the toxic atmosphere. It takes months to hire new employees putting extra strain on existing employees to handle the workload. Government office equipment is second-hand, breaks all the time and it take months to get it repaired which also contributes to a toxic environment in the workplace.

Pros

Excellent job to have while raising a family. Maxi-flex schedule (9 on, 1 off) is very helpful for doctor appointments to not use up sick time.

Cons

Under hiring freezes, oftentimes working understaffed to meet numerous program details.

Pros

Good retirement benefits. Very flexible leave usage

Cons

Pay has fallen behind the private sector. Bureaucracy is bad. No vision for the future. Field offices generally have a good culture but that is where it stops
