    Good stepping stone company
    The good thingsThe good things are the people you work with especially if they are at your age level and they made it bearable and enduring. Good food during breaks. As for the work stuff, it's easier to get things done so you have your own leisure time after hustling.
    The challengesThe challenges are the following: 1) Delays of salary; 2) Micromanaging of bosses; 3) Critics are uttered publicly not in private, which made it demotivating to work especially if you are JO; 4) Office politics; 5) Underappreciated;

    I loved working with DOTr.
    The good thingsProject Managers are taking the welfare of the staff seriously especially during the pandemic. Teams are the smartest people I know. Great opportunities always await and always available.
    The challengesThe only downside of this office is the salary delayed which lasts up to 3 to 4 months max. The reason I didn't renew my contract with them. The job, the people, the environment weren't exhausting AT ALL. The management and the system are.

    Feb 2018
    1 to 2 years in the role, former employee
    Many good people to meet and there are opportunities to learn, but so does other agencies or companies.
    The good thingsIf you know how to respect yourself, you can work 8-5. Sometimes, working on weekdays or after office hours can't be avoided, but if it's for the general public, it's worth it. Most of the supervisors respect work-life balance. Unless, of course, you're working directly for officials.
    The challengesChallenges - just your everyday challenges when working for the government: politics, tight (sometimes impossible) deadlines you need to beat, high stress. This agency needs to improve on many levels, though.

    Executive Assistant (Special Operations Officer II)
    Jul 2015
    1 to 2 years in the role, current employee
    Good learning experience
    The good thingsI've been working to this Department from July 2015 until to this currently day. I find my job a good experience for my future career and it enhance my work experience and personal development. My job covers administrative, clerical and secretarial duties of the Office. My boss always tell me that never be afraid to ask questions and very supportive in my decisions.
    The challengesMy most challenging experience/ decision will be the handling of daily schedule of my boss. She is very hands-on to the various committees and programs as the representative of the department related to transportation. And even find time to read books even if she has busy meetings on the day which I admired about her. This challenging experience teaches me to prioritize things in life.

    On the move
    The good thingsWorking in the public sector is a fulfilling experience. Though you are not in the fromt line, the thought of you being able to serve the public in your own little way will make you feel awesome.
    The challengesA person working in this government office must exercise the principle that a public office is a public trust. Some employee may find it difficult to resist bribes and corruption since what is involved is the public in general.
