Pros

Very Diverse place to work, has other activities outside work for employees to do.

Cons

Government leadership needs to know how to lead!, DIA shifts employers around a lot, shows favoritism too much, places anyone to fill a position regardless if they have experience in that field or not, a lot of government employees make the atmosphere at DIA Headquarters unappealing and snobby.

Pros

Great money, to do something I really love.

Cons

Horrible management and no leadership. I am amazed by the number of managment positions this agency has. For an agency with over 16, 500 people they sure complain about not having enought people to provide support to the warfigher. As an airman I was allowed to make more decisions than this agency allows. It is all about the process, not the product and intelligence.

Pros

Interesting and much needed mission, if the civilians could ever get their heads around it

Cons

Cronyism, the worst possible E-O nightmare, incompetent managers keeping more talented younger workers down, and a purge of military personnel by the careerist civilians
