I have just been offered an entry-level position at the Crystal City (Arlington) office. I was curious about the dress code for women - when I was there it varied anywhere from suits to more casual khakis. What exactly is allowed? Are there casual Fridays? I'm coming straight out of college and as you can imagine most of my clothes are definitely on the "casual" side - not inappropriate by any means but still unsure. Can we wear nice knee-length skirts or dresses in the summer (no spaghetti straps and plunging neckline, obviously)? |

I'd really go for a real conservative look until you get a feel. Different offices have their own standards and cultures and I've never been to the one in crystal city. Generally, booz is considered to be more formal and conservative than a lot of firms and my wife was chided for some seemingly silly stuff. I think the skirts you mention would be fine though as long as they are nice ones. |

How depressing. Work has been reduced to dress code. What about goals? What about dreams? What about creativity? What about making the world a better place? What about service? Who gives a F--- how your dressed, just do good work and make a difference in the world. Sometimes I hate what "work" has become. I think we were better off as cave men. |
