Pros

It’s a good way to get your foot into the federal government. The benefits are good, My coworkers became like family.

Cons

The Denver region in particular is a cesspool! The favoritism is blatant, The manager at work for literally had well over a dozen EEO complaints against her and nothing ever changed. THE DENVER WSU IS NOT VETERAN FRIENDLY AT ALL!!! You are more or less punished for having military experience. I seen veterans fires and punished left and right by the district manager. Get your foot in the door but run from that place as soon as possible.

Pros

Health benefits, work/life balance, flex-time.

Cons

Pathetic management, ghetto environment, many employees are related to each other or belong to the same fraternity/sorority which results in favoritism and covering up for each other.

Pros

The pay scale here is the same as the DC area govt agencies

Cons

Not as flexible as other govt agencies Unprofessional staff and management Micromanagement Education and experience don't get any respect here apparently Dressing up, politics and pretending to get things done overrule doing actual work People switch departments so easily that they don't seem to know how to do the job
