Opportunity to work on meaningful projects that improve/fix govt services and how its access and distributed
Hostile environment to people of color unless you conform to their expectations personality wise. Super sensitive to constructive criticism. At the end of the day, they serve in politics so you have to be willing to “play the game and find impact with in ask the political contestants” … This can be very frustrating if you are someone who is excited by the mission to make meaningful impact…e.g. If the project doesn’t help a current politician be re-elected, it will get killed, etc. only join if there’s an existing project they are working in that you’re passionate about…then it can be rewarding.
