Toxic Culture

Pros

Pay and benefits are good compared to other government employment. Work/life balance. Some people you’ll work with are smart and kind and you can learn from them.

Cons

There is more effort put into the façade they want to portray. This leads to a lot of fakeness, passive-aggressive actions, intense micromanagement, and just flat out mistreatment. A significant amount of management don’t model the stated values and aren’t held accountable for anything. Some people are allowed to run amok at the expense of others. A lot of talk of excellence but at the same time indulging people who want to keep everything the way it is/was even if it’s clearly wrong. You aren’t considered a team-player if any of this bothers you. To survive you’ll have to conform.

Pros

Mediocre pension, hybrid work schedule, good equipment, excellent Healthcare benefits, adequate time off.

Cons

Thoroughly hostile management, a refusal to staff appropriately, very low starting pay. Mostly hires management from outside instead of promoting from within. Career growth options very limited.
