I'm not sure how much others would know about the DoM, esp since it's the only department in the Ministry that technically doesn't need to answer to the DMLE according to the HP Wiki. And given that the 15th Minister's attempt to shut down the DoM went largely ignored by Unspeakables, I think it'd be safe to say it was the DoM and only the DoM that knew what they did, save for former employees as Kayte stated above.

But even so, I wouldn't be surprised if employees of the DoM, upon their exit of the department, either a) had their memories modified after their departure from the DoM [something likely baked into the contract they sign upon their employment] or b) were sworn to secrecy/bound by some sort of magical non-disclosure agreement.

If A, I could see it being a complex memory charm wherein they remembered they were an employee but basically all the things they had worked on would just be redacted from their brain. Obviously Option A would be a bit more difficult to apply to our specific canon than Option B :P

I could see that, if specific Unspeakable work is ever declassified/deemed successful, it'd likely be extremely filtered through to other departments before it ever reached the public. But in cases of, say Time incidents that affect the public's reality, it would be revealed but merely as a blanket statement rather than something rife with details, like we've done in the past!
