Business outlook
Pros
We have an abundance of projects and opportunities to work on policy-level initiatives. The work is interesting and the people are very friendly. The Maryland office where I work has a gym, credit union, health unit, and large cafeteria with Dunkin Donuts and Subway as options.
Cons
The budget is held hostage by Congress. We are operating at 2010 levels, and we have to get approval to fill positions that are vacated due to attrition or retirement. Hiring exceptions for new positions is rare. We are doing much more with much less. Training is a thing of the past. My low rating is due to the budget constraints, not the agency itself.
