US Immigration and Customs Enforcement Reviews

Pros

Cons

No Cons noted considering this occupation.

Pros

Easy job it respect for respect

Cons

Staff can cause drama instead back each other up.

Pros

Work-Life Balance. Good environment for an extrovert who is curious about the world. Colleagues don't take themselves too seriously and are willing to help each other. Everyone comes to the agency with their eyes open. One-Two week details to other offices are fun low stakes funded work trips.

Cons

Being part of an ineffective and politically controversial agency and wondering if you are squandering your talents.... probably. Constant shift from D.C. on how to prioritize cases. With 8 - 12 million undocumented non-citizens in the U.S. and a backlog of 2 million cases, your impact can feel pointless.

Pros

- Cool integration of mission and technology - Some really great and passionate people

Cons

- Lots of politics - Favoritism (based on politics) - Optics of working at an unpopular agency - Lots of senior management turnover

Pros

Huge Salary, benefits, paid holidays, no nights or weekends. Recession proof.

Cons

Very, Very long and hyper-competitive promotion process that can take many years to navigate. Most people probably quit or give up after rejection after rejection.

Pros

Flexible work, telework, people, money. Interview was tough.

Cons

A lot of court with little time to prepare. Can get very repetitive

Pros

Traveling around the world is a plus.

Cons

Very political job that has terrible mangement.

Pros

Good pay and benefits. Job security. If you're looking for these three. Law Enforcement environment. Good relationships built.

Cons

Work satisfaction has been rated low for years. Constant changes in government policy will make it hard on you on the long run. You may be very active for certain amount of years and suddenly go to 0 miles for a couple more. If you use your sick leave or take a long vacation, expect your salary to drop for a few months (due to calculations for a "special type of premium pay called AUO which does not excludes the days you take from leave to it's quarterly calculation) AUO goes from 10 to 25% of your base pay and is based on an average of 18.5 hrs worked every two weeks (to r max at 25%). Many angry people due to politics, instead of focusing in whatever your mission is as a public servant.

Pros

Overall a great job with many opportunities and excellent pay. There is a wide variety of investigations, which is nice if you don't particularly care for drug trafficking cases.

Cons

Upper management is not great and there is definitely still a good old boys club when it comes to promotions and overseas assignments. This part has definitely improved, albeit slowly.

Pros

Salary but it’s still not worth it.

Cons

Poor leadership Discrimination and harassment by management EEOC violation Retaliation by management Favoritism Overwork Terrible place to work, useless you like being miserable all of the time. This people will violate your right and lied about it.
