What don't you like about working at U.S. Department of Defense?
"Maniacal boss, little chance for promotion, pay freezes, pay reductions, little ability to expand into different arenas."
What suggestions do you have for management?
"Actually talk to and engage my employees. Learn about their previous experiences and see what else they bring to the table. Offer tele-work as a daily option. Let employees ex-tern at other agencies and see if they would like to move on or bring back new ideas from other partners. Get an external look from private enterprises to see what we could do differently and more efficiently."
