New Employee Already Looking for the Exit Door - werkgeversreview Administrative bij Environmental Protection Agency

The EPA tends to make their own policy /rules based on the whim of upper management and it doesn't always coincide with actual Federal Policy. The politics here are disgustingly annoying! Management fosters a mentality I've not seen since the late 80's/early 90's in that there is very little true collaboration; groups are segregated and not allowed to assist or speak to other management without approval from your current manager; a chain of command that is absolutely ridiculous in this day in age and micromanages employees to the point that they either give up trying to promote the agency with new and innovative ideas or they jump ship and move on to a more modern agency (or private sector). Dishonesty during the interview process. No promotional or growth opportunities - management shuts down any attempt almost to the point of sabotaging employee careers.
