U.S. Army Corps of Engineers, Portland District

The USACE saves tax payers a lot of money, private companies would charge 4-6 times what USACE does to do the same work. The downside would be that it comes at the expense of their employees barely making it by in some instances- but the work they do is consistent and well done.

The Army Corps of Engineers closed all boat ramps and resevoirs during the Corna pandemic. People have been fired from jobs and not received any unemployment or stimulus and now we cant fish for our food. I have spoken with a couple people saying I would get a call back, etc.. they have been nice and as helpful as possible but unfortunately doesnt feed families.

probably the only place i liked to work in Oregon people where nice friendly and smart the environment is great and its the only thing i loved in Portland

I have to write this review because I entered the front desk and wasn’t greeted or even looked up for about 3 mins.

Please protect our water from huge corporations.

OUR TAXES PAY THESE ENGINEERS TO DO THEIR JOB. I HOPE THEY PULL THEIR HEAD OUT AND MANAGE THE RIVER LEVELS PROPERLY IN THE FUTURE. FOR THE LAST TWO YEARS THEY DID NOT AND THE LOWER COLUMBIA RIVER BASIN HAS REACHED FLOOD LEVELS FOR NO REASON OTHER THAN A LACK OF INTELLIGENCE. HOW HARD IS IT TO FORESEE THE MELTING SNOW IN THE SPRING AND RELEASE WATER BEFORE THAT HAPPENS??? EVIDENTLY THESE PEOPLE HAVE NOT LEARNED THAT YET. MAYBE, JUST MAYBE THEY WILL THIS YEAR. I DOUBT IT, BUT WE CAN ALWAYS HOPE...LOL.!!!!! IT WOULD NEVER HAPPEN IF THEIR HOUSE WAS ON THE FLOOD PLAIN. PATHETIC...

Long wait times and lack of customer service!
