None. You can be the best employee that they have ever seen, and you will not be appreciated, and in a heartbeat they will throw you under the bus if you disagree with any of their policies or the CEO or management. CEO has recently announced her retirement, but her replacement is just as bad. His qualifications when he started with the agency was having completed divinity school and being buddies with the CEO. He would not last two minutes in a real business environment.

All of the above, plus an atmosphere of constant fear of doing something that will unknowingly upset a member of the management team or the CEO. There was an article in Newsday back around 1996 at the time the agency was ten years old. Pretty much all the accusations in the article are true and then some. The agency has had multiple lawsuits against it, to which they counter sued, using money that could have been used for programs. Speaking of money, the CEO has a lavish compensation package that includes salary and perks that rival those of heads of agencies ten times the size of LIAAC.
