Business Outlook
Pros
Working for local government comes with full benefits and a pension plan with mandatory participation. As far as government jobs go, you will be more connected to and more likely to interact with the people who fund your position when working for local government.
Cons
Working outside of the main office can stifle career opportunities. It is best to work in the main or larger offices where there are more positions and greater opportunities for advancement.
