      Amazing work/life balance, fantastic benefits, instant credibility

      Econs/business analyst, lead ac4
      Recommend
      CEO approval
      Business Outlook

      Pros

      - "guit by association" - The government often immediately thinks I'm an expert without me having to prove anything, simply because I work for the company with all the 20# brains. - Work-life balance isn't just lip-service, it's real. Sure we all have to 'surge' from time to time, but if you're regularly working 50-60 hour weeks, something is wrong. - Benefits are top-shelf. Retirement and health plans are gold plated.

      Cons

      - Promotion/career path is not well defined; varies by department/division. Some people get hired and get promoted quickly simply becuase they're in the right department or on the right project. - P&D (performance & development) process is burdensome and doesn't really seem to matter in the end. - Tip: get hired at a high level (AC4 or AC5) that will be satisfactory for a long time...because promotions are inconsistent.
