Pros

At NGA you can do nearly any job. The work is and plentiful. Work-life balance is unsurpassable, in my opinion. Maxi-flex schedule is one of the greatest benefits at the agency.

Cons

1) Financial disclosure is a complete invasion of privacy. I am not sure I want to trust the government with my info following the OPM hacks! 2) New leaders need training before taking leadership positions. 3) The locations where NGA is located are EXPENSIVE!

Pros

Great co-workers. Lots of time off

Cons

Poor senior leadership lacks effectiveness. Promotion decisions prioritize diversity objectives over merit, with less qualified junior personnel (mostly female) advanced to Band 4 and Band 5 positions ahead of more qualified candidates. Additionally, daily workloads are insufficient to fill an 8-hour shift.
