Pros

Good benefits. Lots of vacation time. But too much work to be able to use it.

Cons

I have never seen so many mean, entitled, disrespectful employees in one organization. Leadership allows employees to demean others. The culture if fraught with fear, laziness, leaders who will not make the touch decisions. Run away!!

Pros

Steady work. Good parking. Rank and file are OK.

Cons

Most supervisors act as if they have their own little fiefdom. Way too much corruption. If you do not believe in Progressive philosophies you will not advance.

Pros

Some good, decent, level-headed co-workers. Different positions you can transfer to - if you get burned out or if your supervisor is a trouble-making narcissist.

Cons

The pay is not what you think it is. On their main website, you would think that the job listings are "hourly pay" - WRONG!! Don't be fooled - you are actually paid on/by an "annual" pay, which makes what you bring in significantly less. They also tend to keep the wrong people (mostly supervisors) in the wrong positions. Becoming a "merit employee" guarantees that people with Narcissistic Personality Disorder (NPD) get to stay in their position for as long as they would like - especially if they become a supervisor! (These narcissistic individuals tend to drive good, intelligent, hardworking employees away - and the County doesn't seem to care or do anything about it. Instead, they sit on their hands and keep their mouths shut - and allow bad things to happen to good people.)
