Deputy County Admin and Finance department think they can run IT. Surprise, they can't!

Pros

In ITD we have great, dedicated people with really good ideas. Once in. Great while a fun project comes along.

Cons

Politics. Politics. Politics. Tom Burke (deputy county admin) thinks he can run IT for the county. Even worse, he thinks his old department can run IT for the county. They can't. If you see an IT job posted for Finance Department run for the hills. Unless you want to constantly deal with inept, micro managing bosses over you then by all means please, apply. Otherwise, avoid.

Pros

Stability and an excellent retirement plan.

Cons

Automatic withdrawal of the pension funds means your take home is 10% less than you expected (this may be a pro if you're able to absorb that), worse that they pay lower than market in general. Way too much structure and over-management.
