Business outlook
Pros
Casual working environment with plenty of opportunity to learn new skills through internal courses and seminars. The benefits are good, but I wouldn't say they're better than what I had in the private sector.
Cons
Transportation Planners are undervalued with the State of California. Other units compensate for professional certification, but the State does not do the same for AICP. There is no incentive for planners to stay up to date with the transportation planning practice. Until the older generation of employees retires, it is very difficult to effect change within.
