    Pros

    The benefits are great. Some of the staff is really great.

    Cons

    They don't pay enough to survive. They don't care about their employees, everyone is replaceable. Making a profit is their one and only goal.

    Good and bad - stereotypes are true

    Apr 24, 2017 - Anonymous Employee 
    Recommend
    CEO Approval
    Business Outlook

    Pros

    Work with very well meaning people, have a positive mission Great retirement and benefits - more time off than you can use, excellent healthcare

    Cons

    Work with many "retired in place" people that can't or won't get the job done Most agencies are underfunded so IT work is grabbing for pennies Politics is real. Many agencies get new leadership every 4 years like clockwork
