      Weathering the storm

      CEO approval
      Business Outlook

      Pros

      Relentless focus on mission, trying very hard to not RIF (lay off) employees during downsizing/restructure

      Cons

      It is a difficult time for any federal agency. NGA leadership is solid, but in this era any day can bring new lunacy from above. Due to large force reduction, anticipate limited opportunity gain entry, and limited upward mobility within, for the next 18-36 months minimum.

      Sometimes great, sometimes not so much

      Business Outlook

      Pros

      Great mission, lots of great people, decent pay (although gets eclipsed by private as you gain experience)

      Cons

      Culture shifts depending on the leadership; it’ll go from a great place to work with a great director to a pretty miserable place to work. And external politics do get felt, too. Telework policy used to be great, but that’s, unfortunately, all been dropped.
