IRS Employee Reviews for Executive Secretary

What do you like about working at IRS?

"I really enjoyed the customer service area, because I felt like it gave me a chance to potentially make a difference in assisting the agency's past reputation as being a hard-ball-type agency."

Do you have any tips for others interviewing with this company?

"I like this approach."

What don't you like about working at IRS?

"When I arrived at IRS, I came from another government agency, and at that time and sometimes now, the agency is not kind to outsiders. I believe its management would prefer that you grow-up in IRS, which for me confirms my suspicion during the implementation of the 1998 reorganization and transition of the agency."

What suggestions do you have for management?

"If this questions continues to refer to the IRS, then my observation was that managers extensively conducting/attending meetings, which is great from a communication stance. However, I was always curious as to how does the agency think that managers are to manage if they keep them away from their employees to manage. This statement also depends upon the level of the manager. In other words, if the manager is at the executive level, more than likely he/she will be extensive travel status and/or meetings. I feel reason being is that executives are responsible for the political aspects of executing and enforcing agency business practices."
