Pros

Benefits & holiday pay.flexible work schedule. pay for training in trade or field of study. They will also pay for school opportunities like getting your Master or MBA

Cons

Lack of career advancement. People are hiring their friends who not qualified for position while others who qualified are rejected. You can't get interview but you made cert.It's crazy. Need to be investigation or grievance filed (multiple times).It's ridiculous. They hire good people but they don't stay long once they learn about lack of opportunity and unfair treatment in career advancement. Also, the pay is much lower in government.Unless you out of work for while and just need stable paycheck do not waste your time. The morale is bad. People are frustrated and not motivated. Do yourself a favor and look elsewhere

Pros

Won’t fire anyone, know how much you’re going to make.

Cons

Bad raises. Job growth is very uncommon. Management is incompetent from top to bottom. Not enough people and too much work. Nepotism is rampant in this organization. Unqualified people are promoted. Career bad apples are left without being fired or disciplined. First level managers are useless. They at too much red tape to do the most basic things. Upper levels are arrogant and hard headed.hiring has been frozen for a year yet somehow the ‘bud club’ is promoting people constantly who are in their ‘inner circle’. Hiring actions are super sketchy, names are dropped for specific people to be hired etc. It’s crazy
