      Truly awful culture

      CEO approval
      Business outlook

      Pros

      Interesting subject matter; some excellent colleagues

      Cons

      Terrible workplace culture and openly hostile work environment. Withhold benefits offered citywide as a way of controlling their employees (e.g. the city offers hybrid work, but the OIG does not; the city offers early release the day before a Federal holiday, the OIG refuses). People who give critical feedback are deemed "unprofessional" and written off entirely.
