Pros

The work is fast-paced but within the guidelines of structure and processes. Self-motivated, mission driven people will excel. My line manager allowed great flexibility (no micromanaging that noon-time walk!) and was very supportive, and my team was stellar. Overall, I could trust that everyone across the org is doing their best; the drama is minimal. The DC office staff is a very multi-cultural: the potlucks are amazing!

Cons

WV is huge, and the wheels often turn slowly. Tough environment due to the dissolution of USAID and changes at Dept. of State.
