The Federal Drive with Tom Temin --May 20, 2024

When seeing the Best Places to Work in the Federal Government results this year, many agencies may be breathing a sigh of relief.
It’s not necessarily because of where they landed in the rankings. Rather, it’s because there appears to be a broader atmospheric shift for the federal workforce.
The Partnership for Public Service and Boston Consulting Group released the 2023 Best Places to Work results Monday.

The index score is now 65.7 out of 100, a 2.3-point increase since last year’s rankings.
