Stale, slow, ok pay, no advancement or training. Awful, I mean awful managers.

Program analyst

Business Outlook

Pros

Great job security and work life balance. If you have a family its good.

Cons

Everything else. This place is not for anyone wanting to make a difference. Any thoughts or ideas of innovation go no where. Managers are seriously aweful. They don't care about employees and want to get the credit from higher ups. It feels like high school with managers trying to one up one another. They make terrible decisions that waste tax payer dollars. This is what happens when people have been in power far to long. Way to many scientists and lawyers making top tier decisions. The disconnect and politics is deflating. Awful morale. All the good staff left or retired. It's the bottom feeders left.

Depends completely on which office you're in - stay away from OCFO, OEI, or OARM

Government schedule, pay, and benefits. Mission of protecting human health and the environment. Great Administrator (currently). Work with talented people.

Completely dysfunctional management culture - no performance management of managers. Great managers are allowed to be great and horrible managers are allowed to be horrible.
