Very comprehensive, medical, dental, pension

The health insurance is decent, but it is not great by any stretch of the imagination. I have friends who get much better health care at similar jobs around the city, but they are not part of the DOE.

Everything is covered generally but sometimes it can be difficult to find a good doctor who will take our insurance.

Health insurance, pension, holidays, and retirement plan.

Great benefits in healthcare, insurance, vacation days. Work hours is good for families and provide enough time to have a life on weekends unless required due to a program or function set up in a site you are overseeing.

Tuition assistance, early release time, and paid summers!
