DO NOT WORK FOR - County Program Technician US Farm Service Agency Employee Review

Pros

Working with the farmers, helping them enroll in programs that will keep them operating.

Cons

Management is awful, hypocritical, and makes up their own rules daily. Coworkers talk down to, and gossip about producers daily. Management and supervisors could give a crap about the problems in the office, or others not doing their job because it would create more paperwork for them. Traning is awful. A program will roll out before you've even heard of it or had the training. Deadlines are one on top of the other, you can't find time to breathe. Checklists for programs are a nightmare, some 4 pages long. Many times in my office certain farmers calls and e-mails would get ignored purposely, while other favorited farmers would get better treatment. Disgusting what went on in the office and what gets turned a blind eye to. Hostile work environment that is almost encouraged. You'll go far here if you do the bare minimum.

Pros

Excellent job to have while raising a family. Maxi-flex schedule (9 on, 1 off) is very helpful for doctor appointments to not use up sick time.

Cons

Under hiring freezes, oftentimes working understaffed to meet numerous program details.

Pros

Good retirement benefits. Very flexible leave usage

Cons

Pay has fallen behind the private sector. Bureaucracy is bad. No vision for the future. Field offices generally have a good culture but that is where it stops
