Pros

Opportunity to make a meaningful impact on the economic prosperity of the region. LAEDC has clout within the public and private sectors it serves. People who work there are proud of what they do. Although it is technically a non-profit, it has a business orientation and is able to make things happen. It blends the best of feel-good orientation with bottom-line productivity.

Cons

For professionals working in the field it can be difficult to keep connected to HQ in downtown. Also, dual reporting line between head office and regional partners can lead to conflicting mandates. Leadership and resources are not always quickly available to off-site staff when needed.

Pros

Great place to learn as a nurse and serve the community. Generally good camaraderie amongst staff. Good job stability and good benefits despite lower hourly pay than other top hospitals in the area.

Cons

Things are tightening up with ongoing reports of the "budget crisis." The working environment greatly varies by manager. You don't pay into social security, so many staff who work many years at the county feel "handcuffed" here because of the retirement benefits.
