Ask HN: What's it like to be a programmer at a government agency?

What does your work day look like ? Do you have project managers ? Do you work on exciting things ? I'm curious to know (Especially if you work at NASA !)

It all depends on where you are. Some areas will be like a nursing home with no work to do, others will be high energy and often doing interesting work.<p>You need to be able to suck it up and deal with the Byzantine bureaucracy and thought process.
