Pros

Federal Benefits Meet New People Develop New Skills Work with varied populations Serve varied populations

Cons

Poor leadership and poor culture. Not focused on public service but themselves and looking good to others. A lot of internal problems like bullying and discrimination, discrimination against it's own employees who have disabilities, uncouth and deceitful management who deflect when confronted with evidence, and supervisors who don’t care about the public. Terrible outlook on public service and nasty comments about the public to employees. Too much pressure to achieve public service indicators. Not enough employees to handle claims and interviews. Truly unmanageable workloads and unnecessary insurmountable pressure to complete special sidelined projects without giving employees the time to complete the projects. Intimidation, and trumped memos and write-up's. Extremely discriminate conduct in regarding awards systems and a complete disregard for credibility. Lastly, a hostile work environment that targets educated people - those educated are made to feel useless and are targeted with unnecessary comments and tactics. Threats to another person's physical being. Poor training and mentorship efforts. No value in social capital what so ever.

Everything's on a quota, heavy workload, dealing with irritated claimants—it's not really a legal job.
