Pros

Important battleground state. Very exciting and high profile candidates and campaigns. Florida is very beautiful, beaches are virtually only an hour away no matter where you live.

Cons

Democrats county committee structure, county party structure, women's auxillary club do not work together in sync or very well with the Florida Democratic Party. FDP does not do a good job coordinating with those on the ground.

Pros

Working to help elect democrats in Florida does feel very rewarding and like you're actually making a difference in these communities (if you win). Also I truly enjoyed working with very capable and hard working people, mostly women, who really make the impossible happen.

Cons

TERRIBLE management. Whoever was actually making the decisions for field had absolutely no clue what they were doing and didn't care at all if they were making our jobs harder, if not impossible. Also, was promised gas cards from day 1 and didn't get them until nearly 3 months in and never was reimbursed for buying office supplies despite putting in multiple expense requests. It is unsurprising that Democrats lose in Florida with how poorly the field team is run. I heard from long-time community members that this is how the state Party has been running campaigns for a long time, at the expense of local knowledge and trust. I learned how not to run a field team from this job and was told I was "unprofessional" and that I needed to "watch my tone" for questioning the effectiveness of various decisions.

Pros

The work you do is very fulfilling. You get to be part of the process of bein the change you want to see in the world.

Cons

The state director for Florida and the leaders of the south MIAMI team ran a very unorganized and unstructured campaign. The FO's are underfunded, underpaid, and overworked with 90+ work weeks and no days off.
