[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Has anyone here who has worked in the federal government actually worked in a well-managed place that encouraged growth, with competent, non-abusive managers and coworkers, with reasonable workloads? Because both federal offices I've worked in were extremely dysfunctional, but in different ways.

Has anyone here ever actually liked working in the federal government? If so, would you mind giving some hints about where to look  for a decent work experience?[/quote]

Yes. The "best place to work" list for the government is fairly accurate. I moved from a miserable agency to an agency that consistently scores at the top of that list and my work life has improved dramatically, I like working, I've gotten promoted fairly, and my management actively mentors me.

Me, I would give my agency as much time as possible so they get the full benefit to be able to backfill. Why screw people over on your way out when you can just let them know the truth and everyone can move forward? [/quote]

I worked at an agency component that was #1 on that list for years and years and the ranking was probably accurate for administrative staff and not at all accurate for professionals.[/quote]
