Business outlook
Pros
Well-positioned to effect positive environmental change; reasonable opportunity at staff level to move among different environmental media (air, water, etc.) and offices; Agency is well-supported by the Obama Administration; jobs tend to be very secure at staff level
Cons
Progress on issues can be slow due to huge number of in house stakeholders and concomitant number of meetings; senior managers have inordinate power to negatively affect careers with very little fear of recourse; many Congressional Republicans try to make it difficult for Agency to do its job through limiting funding and "oversight" activities
