Not bad for Government Work

Pros

If you are competent and hard working you will stand out from the crowd. As with many government employers, Travis County seems to attract and retain the mediocre.

Cons

If you are In Search of Excellence, this is probably not a good fit. The technology is not the latest, the people are not the best and brightest. As I was once told... This isn't like the private sector where results don't matter. Focus solely on the process. If you follow the established procedure and fail it wont be a problem because you performed all the correct steps in the right order. Deviate from the established procedure and even if you produce exceptional results, you can get in serious trouble.
