Don't apply here at all! - Program Technician US Farm Service Agency Employee Review

First, the workload, I believe the National and State Offices do not see us anything but robots, plain and simple, they have one goal to work us to death. Ad-hoc programs and new programs with little training. And no recognition from the higher ups when you succeed, but admonishment when you fail. The pay does not match the work, they pay you like it is 1995. The Pass/Fail system which is subjective to potential bias. And you work with the same group over the years and unless you have the right dynamic you wear on each other.
