Morale lowest at Homeland Security...

From NYTimes, an excerpt:

The survey was taken by the Office of Personnel Management between August and December 2004. Forms with 88 multiple-choice questions about workers' attitudes toward their jobs were sent to 276,424 federal employees selected at random, and 147,914, including 10,473 from the Department of Homeland Security, returned completed questionnaires. The department employs 180,000 workers.

The purpose of the survey, the personnel office said, was to allow managers to measure "employees' perceptions of whether, and to what extent, conditions characterizing successful organizations are present in their agencies."

In June, the personnel office posted agency-by-agency answers to 78 of the questions, at www.fhcs2004.opm.gov/published.htm.
