Pros

Being able to gain experience under my belt under different departments. Making connections with the fiscal department through the state of Tennessee. Honestly, the 401(k) plan if you’re working for the state is probably the best one throughout the country.

Cons

Cost of living does not compare to the salary, specifically the metro areas

Sometimes things move slowly due to red-tape.
