Pros

Benefits are quite good, better than much of the private sector. Healthy mandatory retirement plan. Salaries are reasonable, near 50% of median for each job sector. Management does communicate with staff. Staff has means to communicate with management at all levels.

Cons

Slow progression to top of retirement contribution rate (10 years). Commissioners sometimes become so focused on an objective that it appears that they lose sight of the repercussions of changes being made. Budget constraints are currently high. There will be budget shortfalls for the next couple years (at least) which will make for a very lean environment.

Pros

Location and flexibility of work hours. Professionalism of employees is good. Proximity to Colorado State University makes it easy to get additional guidance when needed.

Cons

Colorado budget are tight so excess resources do not exist. Political environment can be challenging but when the two sides get along progress can be made.
