Pros

Every department varies. Flexibility and benefits are good. Working on a beautiful campus also is nice to take a break and walk around.

Cons

Haven't has a raise in 5 years. Management is not always helpful in recognizing if you're doing a great job. They only recognize the people not doing their job. Lots of RED TAPE and budget difficulties. Also, there's always office politics and drama. No way to move up the ladder. Massive budget cuts thanks to Governor Bobby Jindal which leads to fear of losing your job at least twice a year. Thanks!

Pros

Benefits covered 90% of my healthcare needs. The time-off and work-from-home policies were flexible and allowed me to meet my military requirements.

Cons

The salary policy did not guarantee advancement for low-level employees. You are guaranteed a merit raise each year, but you cannot receive a salary raise within the same six-month period. If an Unclassified employee reaches the maximum of their pay scale, they will no longer receive a merit raise. A department supervisor must approve any pay scale increase. The appeal process takes longer than most are willing to accept.
