Pros

Composed of brilliant staffers with innovative ideas.

Cons

Old school thinking, can't think outside of the box. Afraid of change. Leadership absolutely inept, a bunch of children fighting over an old swing set.

Pros

I was fully remote, learned so much from a great group of peers, the union is strong and active, pay was fair

Cons

The federal funding saga put a damper on morale, but that was pretty outside of the scope of what my team/manager could control.

Pros

tiny desks happen at work

Cons

soulless and corporate, management is all-powerful, benefits are slowly disappearing, few career prospects unless you fit a certain "profile"
