Pros

1. Great benefits 2. Very good working environment with a great deal of options for future opportunities and movement within the organization. 3. Feel what I make is competitive especially right out of school. 4. extremely flexible work schedule. can balance your hours very easily (at least for salaried). the 4/10 schedule allows me to have fridays off, which is nice.

Cons

1. Ultimately you are working for the government, things move slower than one may like. 2. Bureaucracy

Pros

- Four 10-hour workdays weekly, plus time balancing - Very strong job security - Work-life balance is very good - Work culture is good, the people are very down-to-earth and relaxed - The work supports an important, meaningful mission

Cons

- DoE work pacing is very slow at times - Opaque promotion system that seemingly rewards less experienced new hires much more than long-term employees, with respect to time in grade
