      Pros

      Great work-life balance. Great benefits. Stable employment. The current administration (2015) really tries to connect to its employees and to the community.

      Cons

      There is little room for advancement as most of the employees tend to stay until retirement. This also leads to some practices and processes being outdated. Management varies across the board. Some managers are great and communicate well. Managers should receive training prior to moving into a management position and/or receive training every couple of years.

      Pros

      Your experience will vary based on the personality of your management. Most times, they are ok. Time off can be generous, and pay can be competitive to private sector. Job security can be high, but sometimes dismissal are done like in private sector. If you make the right friend, you can move up very fast. Overall, good employer.

      Cons

      You have to learn to manage up some of the mangers. Sometimes, they can be unreasonable and rude. Promotions are done in social networks. Unlikely you will learn much nor build your professional skill. Get some life experience from this employer, and move on.
