Pros
Summer Fridays are cool I guess
Cons
829 cannot properly manage workload whatsoever. A senior manager on one of the other teams was overworked so hard that it contributed to a relapse with alcoholism. They claim to care about employees but that's mostly on the surface and only if they like you. Pay sounds good for your position before you realize most people are working over forty hours a week EVERY week, even during the summer when Fridays are all half days. Career development here is also a joke, they claim to push internal talent for position openings but you should expect open positions to be hired for instead. There are brilliant minds here being absolutely wasted at an agency that doesn't realize the value of its talent, specialists that outperform those of higher positions actively have their potential squandered by an agency that hardly allows for advancement. Burnout is so bad that some departments had to have actual trainings on how to manage the stress that comes with their insane workloads and with all that going on, don't forget to meticulously track every minute of your workday or risk being pulled into a disciplinary meeting.
