Nationalities Service Center Reviews

Management is disorganized. There was no system in place for reviews, raises, or promotions. I did not have the opportunity to participate in any relevant conferences or trainings during my two years of employment, nor did I ever receive a performance review or raise. This is not standardized between departments: some departmental reviews and raises are consistent and scheduled, but several of my coworkers who had been working there for four or five years had never been evaluated in any way. NSC does not have anyone working in an HR capacity. It is also against NSC policy to provide professional references. Outgoing staff, as well as short-term interns, can only receive references listing their dates of employment (or internship).

If you'd like to work for a place where you will be consistently and mindlessly doing the same thing, with no potential for growth and only promises - this is the place! NSC does not invest in its employees as seen with the scarce resources available for employees to do their job. New employees get hired and leave within a year. For the tools they give the newly arrived refugees and immigrants to succeed and thrive, Nationalities skimps out on investing in the employees offering those tools.
