Terrible Place To Work If You Are A Contractor - IT Contractor Environmental Protection Agency Employee Review

Pros

A few of the people are nice but for the most part, it's not a friendly place to work. Building is nice, but they are moving out of it.

Cons

For some reason, contractors are treated with disdain. We are not made to feel like we belong. If someone makes a mistake, there is always a major investigation to find someone to blame. If the EPA person makes a mistake it's no big deal. If you're a contractor and you make a mistake, you better plan on spending the next few days/weeks explaining in minute detail why you made a mistake. I've been working for 25+ years in different types of businesses and settings, and I have to say that this is the worst atmosphere I've ever worked in.
