Pros

- no manager on you unless they track you and call you. Of course get work done…whether it’s inspections or looking after a crew working. Your day will go by quickly if you have inspections to do… -time off whenever you feel like it / get off early when you want..” just don’t do it all the time” -little to no labor work

Cons

Favoritism with older people* (25+) You get empty promises if you know what I mean “$” Work on weekends sometimes Obtaining a CDL without extra $

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 Doing the work of 3 people but pay for 1 …building outdated (except for HQ in Austin), lack of modern software but PeopleSoft gets the job done, High mandatory pension deductions right at 9.5% big hit to paycheck!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.
