Pluspunten

There has been some fresh blood added to management in the space bioscience division in the last year. These individuals are committed to improving facilities and expanding the research. There is a general sense that the future of space bioscience is wide open.

Minpunten

There is some old guard who seem resistant to change. It's fine for the civil servants among them since they have a guaranteed job. There is a fair amount of bad blood between some members of the division, both civil servants and contractors, because of budget stress, conflicting and stubborn personalities and perhaps a little insecurity. Unfortunately, everyone suffers as a result. Contractors are shuffled around at the whim of civil servants (clients) and the contracting company as if we are a commodity and not individuals with career aspirations.

I have nothing good to say.

Minpunten

If you are the victim of a crime or experience something illegal connected to NASA, do not blindly trust the internal process to protect you. In my experience, NASA has built relationships with local and federal agencies in a way that can push people right back into NASA’s own internal channels, including HR, the Inspector General, and Protective Services. The problem is that those offices may not have the authority, independence, or experience to properly handle serious criminal or legal issues. Once you are back inside that system, the priority can quickly become protecting the organization, managing liability, and controlling the narrative instead of protecting the person who was harmed. Victim intimidation is not just possible in that kind of environment. It should be expected. Once the organization is involved in controlling the process, the person reporting harm can end up pressured, isolated, discredited, or steered away from outside accountability. That is unacceptable. Victims should not be forced into a process where the organization involved gets to influence how the matter is handled. Internal offices are not a replacement for real legal protection, outside law enforcement, or independent legal counsel. If something illegal happens to you, talk to a lawyer first. Get independent advice. Have your attorney guide you through the appropriate outside agencies and legal channels. Do not assume NASA’s internal process is neutral, independent, or designed to protect you.
