      Great for Families - Transportation Engineer Civil (Range B) Caltrans Employee Review

      Pros

      I've worked private and now I work state. When it comes to work life balance, I honestly couldn't ask for better. You get lots of time off because of holidays, the Union does well, and the benefits are second to none.

      Cons

      There is downtime. If you're used to private with the go go go attitude, transitioning to state service will be an adjustment BUT if your priority is family then you will appreciate the adjustment once you get used to it.

      Pros

      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.
