Pros

The County has tons of different positions, so you could stay here for years and have a wide range of career opportunities. Executive Constantine has a really meaningful agenda, and there are jobs within the County to back up all of these agendas. Great benefits - the healthcare is probably the best in the region.

Cons

Managers are not incentivized to grow their staff - if you want to grow within the County you have to leave your position for a different one. Most managers are not great with growing their staff.

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.
