Pros

Once past probation it is nearly impossible to fire you. Moving around by applying internally is not difficult. You can apply overseas to military installations around the world and they pay to relocate you. Heath Benefits, Retirement programs are very good. Banking with a military based bank such as Navy Federal will get you great rates on loans if you work for the DOD.

Cons

You have to play politics. There are a lot of bullies, In line with bullies are the power trippers pushing you down. If you were not in the military it will be much harder to adapt to the office.

Pros

Flexible when life occurs Caring working groups Robust professional development program if employee chooses to engage Easy to move to a new position at the next grade after a year in current grade. If you don’t like it finding and gaining another government job is fairly easy. WFH max 3 days a week

Cons

Only three days of week work from home The working process are convoluted The majority of the workforce is an ever aging older community of folks who are set in their ways and with mil officers holding the top positions while rotating every two years makes it difficult to maintain historical knowledge and make changes that actually benefit the company. Most of the elderly workforce has a I’m about to retire so I’m skating the rest of the way. No or little repercussion for poorly performing employees. It’s said that outstanding reviews are frowned upon bc there is always room for improvement, which has nothing to do with your previous years performance. Every app and data system is beyond outdated. No one really knows or follows the processes as written and the process are often outdated and do not alight with basic project management and business principles.
