Pros

The holidays and PTO are generous, presumably to make up for the low pay.

Cons

Literally everything is bad. The facilities are old and gross. The management is incompetent. The organization chart is disorganized. If something makes sense in the real world (non government) then you can bet TxDot will do the opposite.

Pros

Good health insurance, vacation and sick leave! No mandatory overtime

Cons

Hired remote before Covid and this agency ended all telework even though other state agencies kept it! Doing the work of 3 people but pay for 1 …building outdated (except for HQ in Austin), lack of modern software but PeopleSoft gets the job done, High mandatory pension deductions right at 9.5% big hit to paycheck! Getting paid once a month big adjustment. Ending telework really limits their talent pool around the state of Texas now must live in Austin if you want access to the majority of good jobs.
