Generally a good work-life balance, but also not very interesting work - Research Assistant ICF Employee Review

The senior mgmt, while smart and capable are not always the best managers. They also have trouble delegating interesting work that RAs and junior staff would be capable of doing. The work can be very boring and require very little thought. However, this is again dependent on the group you are working in. There are also signification communication issues--it is hard to know what is going on in the group aside from the work you are directly involved in.
