There is a troubling DLA trend of expanding the number of inexperienced mid-level GS-14 tier one supervisors. In the span of 4 years, I had 3 brand new inexperienced unqualified supervisors who were incompetent. In addition, they all assigned me entry level work even though I had been a highly regard professional with DLA for over 25 years. Two of the incompetent supervisors were hired from the outside and had no prior DLA background. The third one was a career burnout who had mental health issues from deployments to Iraq. Overall, my experiences during the last few years with DLA were absolutely awful. They treated me like a child and that caused a lot of resentment. And I wasn't alone. Many other coworkers also were mistreated and discriminated by incompetent mid-level supervisors. I would not recommend DLA as an employer whatsoever. DLA has a big problem with the way they select and hire GS-14 supervisors at Fort Belvoir.
