    Department of Defense Educational Activity Reviews

    I really enjoyed working for DODEA. I learned a lot about instructional activity and learned about valuable resources that accommodate student learning. It was very rewarding working with children and helping to shape their little minds. DODEA provides ample opportunities for professional development and provides the training need for each employee to be successful. The downside is for the position I worked the pay was really low and some could benefit from leadership training.

    Very dedicated to mission accomplishment for the United States Air Force. We have fulfilled many mission goals in delivering equipment and gear across the globe in an expedient and secure manner. The work environment is very professional, very social, fun, and satisfying.
    Its a good place to work, I often am able to put in leave and it is approved and don't have to worry about taking time off when things come up. I also am able to do a part time coaching job which I enjoy and they flex my hours during that time so that I can make it to practices and not have to dig into my leave. The work culture is good, my position is pretty independent so I can do what I need to do and there is no micro managing involved, which I appreciate
