There is a lot of time off and the compensation is good.

Cons

slow, sleepy environment. There's not a lot of direction from managers. You need to be a very self-motivated person.

Pros

Participation in the population count of the United States. The number of Congresspersons depend on having an accurate count of the population. Those doing Family History research depend on having an accurate Census. I enjoyed meeting people of diverse backgrounds, and making sure that the Census was conducted as accurately as possible,

Cons

During the summer, it is hot outside. Some households may not fully understand the purpose of the Census and may be angry that you have knocked on their door or may refuse to participate.
