Pros

The State offers Excellent health benefits, and retirement if you are willing to serve your time. Plenty of opportunity to grow in career, challenging projects, and ability to work independently.

Cons

The management generally lacks the ability to communicate, reach critical deadlines and stay within budget. There is a huge amount of waist and self entitlement. Lots of wasted resources
