Pros

Great peers. Strong benefits. Significant efforts and movement to be "best run government".

Cons

Still slow to action. Cross objectives in some areas. Too much overhead related to training and accomplishing multiple social and cultural goals that significantly reduce efficient use of resources and delivery of services (too many at one time that are slowly executed and not re-enforced or given an opportunity to become engrained in the culture).

Pros

Came to Rail from another division in the county, so much better than certain customer facing divisions. Work like balance and hybrid model are great. Lots of room for advancement in the admin world if you want it.

Cons

Can feel like you’re being micro managed or watched from the top at times but middle management is usually good at mitigating this.
