This article finds support for the argument that the level of government at which an employee works influences that employee's job satisfaction. The authors find that public employees at federal, state, and local levels express varying degrees of job satisfaction. Moreover, the factors that contribute to job satisfaction for local employees are different than those for state or federal employees. The results highlight the ways in which public administrators at each level of government may be able to enhance job satisfaction in the workplace. An earlier version of this article was presented at the Southeastern Conference on Public Administration in Savannah, Georgia, October 1995.
