An analysis by Openwork, which operates a career change and employment platform, has shown that the working environment for national civil servants has deteriorated over the past 10 years in terms of growth, morale, and openness among people in their 20s.Word of mouth is filled with miscellaneous tasks such as dealing with the Diet, and even if a huge amount of work is done, it is not reflected in personnel affairs and evaluations, and there is a swirling dissatisfaction with the workplace where there is a sense of futility.
オープンワークによると、2023年1～7月にオープンワークに投稿された官公庁業界（中央省庁並びに地方自治体）のスコアは、20代の成長環境が2.47、人材の長期育成が2.56、人事評価の適正感が2.46、社員の士気が2.70、風通しのよさが2.93。2014年のスコアに比べ、0.24～0.72低くなっている。
Compared to the average for all industries in Japan as a whole in 2023, the growth environment for people in their twenties is 20, and the sense of appropriateness in personnel evaluation is 0.49 lower, all below the average for all industries. However, the only thing that scored the same point was the level of satisfaction with the treatment.
In addition, when comparing the government industry average as of July 2023 with the comprehensive evaluation of 7 ministries, the Ministry of Economy, Trade and Industry (1), the Ministry of Finance (11), the Ministry of the Environment (3.52), and the Ministry of Defense (3.17) ) became four provinces.Especially for the Ministry of Economy, Trade and Industry and the Ministry of the Environment, 3.16 of the 3.11 ministries scored 4 out of 11 in terms of "openness," but both achieved high scores of over 8. Regarding "employee morale," only the two ministries scored more than 2 points, and there were differences between ministries in terms of evaluation scores related to soft aspects.From the word-of-mouth, there were voices saying that the Ministry of Economy, Trade and Industry and the Ministry of the Environment have a flat culture that welcomes the growth of young people, skills that can be used outside Kasumigaseki, and exchanges and connections outside of their own ministries and agencies.
On the other hand, none of the 1 governments and 11 ministries scored 3 points or higher on personnel and evaluation systems, such as "long-term development of human resources," "appropriateness of personnel evaluation," and "satisfaction with treatment."Word-of-mouth posted on OpenWork continued to be dissatisfied with the enormous amount of work, seniority system, and Diet response.For the younger generation, many of whom are said to value their private lives, national civil servants appear to be a way of working in the Showa era.
According to the National Personnel Authority, 2023 applicants for the 1 Spring National Public Service Examination will fall from 5,330 in the previous year.The second-lowest number ever, the University of Tokyo's 1 graduates hit a record low.
