Pros

Competitive compensation, benefits, and steady employment. Good work life balance.

Cons

Changes happen very slowly at DAU and it moves at the speed of an ocean liner. The culture is largely analytical thinkers. If you want a fast-paced, tech-savvy environment this isn't the place.

Pros

amazing leadership--nurturing everyone and listening to and addressing suggestions for overall organizational improvement; operational efficiency and effectiveness in what we worked on--motivating for innovation, strategy and more. a true value added to taxpayers, and a great experience working there and helping all colleagues grow to their fullest potential. Leadership continued the program even after its funding was cut. Have rarely seen such great motivating leadership and collegial co-supports.

Cons

temporary contract--sad that the funding for the Visiting Professorship positions was cut by Congress--the value was actually tremendous for the workforce.
