Productive and fun environment to work in.
It is a drama free work place. Everyone gets alone with each other. Upper management has an open door policy. Upper management is very understanding. If something is wrong the employees are very comfortable with speaking to Upper management.

Production
You only work about six months out of the year. Cool job. You get to meet a lot of people. Held you understand how the government operates. You get unemployment for the rest of the months.
