Pros

Telework at least 1 day every week, used to be 2 days per week. Telework is the same amount of days whether you have an 8hr/day, 9hr/day or 10hr/day shift. Overtime and comp time available, especially during 4th quarter. Flexible schedule. Plenty of free parking. Work is not too difficult, as long as you apply yourself and learn what you can. Training encouraged. No micro-management. Only gets super busy during 4th quarter.

Cons

Dislike of promoting from within from upper management when gets to the GS-13 position and higher. Much turnover as a result of not promoting current employees. GS-13s come from the outside in, which thus takes awhile for them to get adjusted/warranted. Must wait several years after becoming a GS-12 to get promoted, even if proven to be a great worker.

Pros

Working at NAVFAC allows you to work on important projects for the military that come with some unique challenges. All of my co workers were great people who loved working for the benefit of our military.

Cons

NAVFAC does suffer from some of the drawbacks that come with working for big government organizations, namely some complacency and a lot of extra scrutiny from Military clients and regulations that you may not encounter in the private sector.
