United States Census Bureau Employee

"Participated in four Census surveys in various cities and states since 2010. Have experienced considerable variability in management and conditions in each. The 2020 census survey was well supported despite having to travel on occasion over a hundred miles a day to find respondents in rural areas. The recent 2021 follow-up survey was poorly planned and I was required to travel over 1000 miles a week to locate respondents as well as submit work hours to the supervisor 4 hours from the census area. No onboarding briefing indicated that this was to be the case and was not expecting the extra workload this entailed. The supervisors then denied responsibility for the difficulties that ensued."

Supervisor

"I had the opportunity to work for the US Census in the midst of the Pandemic. It was a great experience to know that even through a traumatic time, our nation's government was still wanting to try to get a thorough and as accurate as possible count of our nations population and survey the populace. Accuracy and Efficiency was their top priority."

"A brief peek into the lives of an enumerator, but a wealth of knowledge and experience gained as a result. The simple task of going from door to door turned into a wonderful engagement with the community that enlightened my perspective about my hometown."

Recruiting Manager

"Worked for 13 months on the 2020 Decennial Census, managing staff of 20. Workflow and administration were poorly managed and communications were mostly ineffectual. Cost management was wasteful and arbitrary. Nevertheless, I would work on the next Decennial Census (2030, if I'm available) bc it's a necessary, meaningful endeavor and I loved the people with whom I worked."
