Pros

Pay, Benefits, Vacation, many nice colleagues,

Cons

Useless, negitive, nonproductive are CLUELESS and have no real understanding of government business they continue to hire externally in hopes of finding someone that does. Once hired into a "certain role" promotion within is nonexistant - - Subordinates are viewed as disposable pawns - - which accounts for the revolving door.

Great pay, fantastic benefits, horrible politics

Pros

The salary was above average and you won't find better employee benefits anywhere else. Excellent training and education opportunities.

Cons

Company politics are horrible. Constant employee turnover due to this. Workload expectations are also unrealistic. Forget work/life balance. You'll spend all your time either working to meet unrealistic demands or worrying about the security of your position if you are not someone who is willing to keep your head down in your cubicle in hopes that you won't be the one your supervisor decides to pick on for that week.
