Pros

Your position will be stable once you pass your probation.

Cons

- Untrained management - Hierarchy culture - Promotions are mostly dependent on your duration at Caltrans, connection versus qualifications - Depends on your department, but this one management pushes responsibilities onto you and relies on your “position of statement” to make you do it - Lost of gossip, petty things, and favoritism

Stable, chances for advancement (dependent on location), more time off the longer you stick around

Cons

Heavy red tape, Analysts may be tasked with supporting way too many needy employees from their own and other units, low morale as a result.
