Pros

Job security: All federal agencies have are setup so that after three years, an employee mist really screw up in order to loose their job. It is great that people are promoted from within, but perhaps the overall career experience for the employee could be enhanced if manager candidates are required to do X number of hours of training of "how to manage people, without being an arse" before actually managing

Cons

Management: It appears there is not a lot of management training classes, It is great that people are promoted from within, but perhaps the overall career experience for the employee could be enhanced if manager candidates are required to do X number of hours of training of "how to manage people, without being an arse" before actually managing

Pros

It's the Government and has the associated Government perks

Cons

Senior Management hasn't got a clue as to what they are doing. They are five years behind the curve from the private sector. Within the last administration a serious effort has been made to contract out software and services.. but the results have cost the taxpayer more than they will ever know.
