Abstract This study aims to evaluate the impact of bureaucratic simplification, career development, and organizational culture on employee performance through satisfaction at the Directorate General of Food Crops. With a sample of 125 employees, quantitative methods were used with the Smart PLS 3 analysis approach. The results show that bureaucratic simplification and career development have a positive and significant effect on job satisfaction. However, the impact of organizational culture on job satisfaction is not significant. In addition, bureaucratic simplification, career development, and job satisfaction have a positive and significant effect on employee performance. Meanwhile, organizational culture has a negative and insignificant impact on employee performance. The study also identified that bureaucratic simplification and career development affect employee performance through job satisfaction as an intermediary. These findings provide strategic insights for the Directorate General of Food Crops to improve employee effectiveness and well-being through more positive bureaucratic, career, and organizational culture change initiatives.
