Business Outlook
Pros
Relatively high pay - when you’re working. You can learn a lot about Census operations in a short time period. Fun to be in the field and work with people. Interesting tools. Some of the long-time Census Bureau employees were very knowledgeable. And most people we worked with were very nice.
Cons
Chaotic and wasteful deployment strategies - senior management demanded that we onboard tons of field workers but didn't have work ready for them. Then they decided to repeat the process. This caused a lot of frustration on the front lines, and it probably had a very negative effect on the quality of data being generated.
