Government of the District of Columbia Employer Reviews

The DC IG investigations unit is weak and has no standing with the FBI, US Atty, or other DC govt agencies. They make no arrests, have no seizure Auth. They have no real investigative training and no specialized units. Oh, And do not present federal cases without a Real Fed or a police officer. They just spent countless investgative hours on DC employees – more... misuse of parking placards...wow real FRAUD cases. THey also had a major Medicaid case....a caregiver slapped a patient. This investigative unit is just for show and not for real results in order to make significant impact. A real joke, on the taxpayers. – less

This organization thrives on backstabbing and favoritism at all levels from frontline to senior management.

St Elizabeths is run by a management that treats its Recovery Assistants like mules. They micro manage every detail and hire poor leadership as managers who will lie to save themselves when something questionable avails itself. treatment for patients in recovery is not cohesively carried out to help the parients in their care. Many staff doctors and – more... nurses get hurt and or harmed as a result of a poor training department that they claim should prepare its new employees. you will be taking an huge risk by working there. Those that continie to stay are there because of money gained through work for overtime duties. wards are constantly being understaffed which increases the risk of the safety for both the employee and the patients. – less

A typical day at work is working with hundreds of walk in customers and helping them find jobs and getting to where they need to be. I have been working there for 3 months now, before then i was working with unemployment in a call center for a year, that was also working with tons of customers with problems and questions, before that, I was working – more... in the Director's Office for the agency for 8 years and 8 months. When I was working in that office I was dealing with customers over e-mail, phone as well as in person. The department is a well organized agency.My co-workers are great and awesome to work with. What I have learned while working with this agency is customers need help and a smile with plenty of customer service is all they need.(sometimes). The most enjoyable part of the job is helping people that need our help with a smile. The hardest part of the job is when I can not help thecustomer because they are too late for filing for unemployment or if they do not have all the information they need. – less

There are workforce issues the District Government must resolved. Namely, the workforce skews closer to retirement age which decreases opportunities for younger workers who may want to advance their careers.

Understaffed which means that everyone who is still there has to pick up the slack. More officers do personal errands and family activities than actually police the PSA.
