The Rankings Are In—GAO Again Named Among Best Places to Work in the Federal Government
Continuing our streak, GAO has again been named one of the Best Places to Work in the Federal Government. This year, we rose to 3rd among mid-size agencies—up one place from last year. We also once again ranked #1 in our support of diversity among mid-size agencies.
U.S. Comptroller General Gene L. Dodaro had this to say about the rankings:
This year’s list of the best places to work confirms GAO’s reputation as an employer of choice in the federal government.
The ratings reflect the high regard our employees have for the agency and their willingness to recommend GAO to others interested in public sector work.
Another point of pride is our continuing high score on diversity and inclusion.
Issued every year, the Partnership for Public Service’s rankings provide insights into how federal employees’ satisfaction with their jobs and offices. The 2019 ratings reflect the perspectives of more than 883,000 federal workers at 490 organizations, based on survey responses on a wide range of workplace topics.

GAO Contacts
GAO's mission is to provide Congress with fact-based, nonpartisan information that can help improve federal government performance and ensure accountability for the benefit of the American people. GAO launched its WatchBlog in January, 2014, as part of its continuing effort to reach its audiences—Congress and the American people—where they are currently looking for information.
The blog format allows GAO to provide a little more context about its work than it can offer on its other social media platforms. Posts will tie GAO work to current events and the news; show how GAO’s work is affecting agencies or legislation; highlight reports, testimonies, and issue areas where GAO does work; and provide information about GAO itself, among other things.
