Pros

Really can’t think of any.

Cons

- there use to be flexibility with the agency. As of Jan 2024 all that went out the window. Leadership changed the telework policy. You are now required to come into the office Tuesday - Wednesday and regular days off must be either Monday or Friday. I have had Wednesday as my regular day off for more than 20 years and now as my career is winding down I no longer have that ability.

Pros

Good Co-Workers Challenging Work Varied Taskings

Cons

No Telework (Anymore) Military Senior Leadership - Treat most Govt. Employees like an Army Private Unprofessional Work Environment (from those looking to climb the ladder) that is not addressed

Pros

Telework. But that’s changing January 2024 to in office Tuesday - Thursday. They’re also severely limiting situational telework. Got a sick kid and want to work from home? Nope. Not comfortable driving an hour one way on icy roads and want to work from home? Nope. So now there really aren’t any pros.

Cons

Worst career move I’ve made. Management is awful. Buyers do the same exact job as contracting officers, but for much less pay. Management singles out employees they don’t like and unfairly scrutinizes them so they can get them on a PIP and pushed out the door. At the same time Buyers are busting their tails to meet production, KOs are some how able to sit around and read their books or browse the internet all day. Management does not listen to concerns, they do not care about you, you are just a number. They change up priorities all the time and leave you lost in the weeds. I’m looking to get out of DLA asap and would not recommend anyone apply here unless you’re already friends with the hiring manager.
