It's what you're working on and who you're working with, i.e. how you're spending your time, that is the real reward. I've had experiences working with different agencies and teams in the federal government that I wouldn't trade for a spotted hog.

- systemvoltage 5y agoMore worrying is the current zeitgeist amongst the GenX and the upcoming workforce: 1) Hard work is considered fascist 2) Everyone is gung-ho about mental health and yet no one can define what precisely it is 3) Racism, gender identity and climate change dominate discussions 4) Authoritarian views (No free speech, cancel culture, struggle sessions) And we have CIA ads where the ideal person is only concerned with themselves, never mentions they are American and never look up to something beyond their own self-identity: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=X55JPbAMc9g https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=X55JPbAMc9g We're doomed. I am an immigrant to America and my folks back home are saying "What happened!?"
