Pros

Fantastic work/life balance, great scheduling options and a competitive salary and benefit package. I have never heard of another company that offers leave, benefits, and 401(k) contribution matching to part-time employees.

Cons

As one would expect, the work environment is very bureaucratic. Positions below the GS-7 level are given very little freedom and responsibility and it is difficult to achieve a good overview the company processes since everything is so segmented.

Pros

An organization that gives individuals a lot of freedom in how to work your assignments (depending on the nature of your work), do not micromanage, treat people with respect, carry through on most commitments like diversity, training and other organizational objectives. Good work life balance. Professional/ growth is up to you, the organization will support and encourage promising individuals by providing rich opportunities

Cons

You wont get rich working here. You will have a lot of job satisfaction. Some who complain, do so as they expect a lot to be handed to them by their management. As an individual you can make a difference in many instances, not all. Things do move slowly, plenty of admin work that is redundant, some even nonsensical
