Pros

Working with the U.S Census Bureau was a great experience. The compensation was good. Hours were flexible, you worked when you wanted to, and pay started from the moment you step out your front door or you can work from home. Overall, very easy work and schedule for the pay.

Cons

You have to knock on stranger's door asking them for an interview about there personal life/ household. Not everyone was happy to see you, especially because you are require to file a form on every home no matter what the tenant says.

Pros

If you want to work very little and receive tons of time off this is the place for you. No more than 40 hours a week without OT.

Cons

The way to grow in the government is just to stay there for a long time, and then you will get promotions. All the upper management has been there 20 years, and they do not know much. You can work your A## off, but there is no purpose. I do the jobs of both of my superiors and it does not matter.
