Pros

Excellent work schedule and benefits. Treated respectfully while I was there.

Pay was not really great. Pay raises didn't happen when they should have (whenever there was a rise in cost of living).

Business Outlook

Pros

The bosses & co-workers are a great team to work with. It is also cool taking of all the roads in Travis County and managing the funds to keep Travis County one of the most livable County's in the USA.

Cons

It was a great loss afterJoe Gieselman and Don Wheeler decided to leave and the special comradery within the whole of TNR went away. We used to have yearly celebrations with the whole group of TNR, allowing road maintenance workers, parks works, and upper management to all mingle together. Now we are just allowed Divisional celebrations within our own groups.

Pros

People, benefits, job security. I enjoyed my time working with the Travis County Juvenile Court. And even in the middle of the recession, there was never a concern about getting laid off.

Cons

The pay. The extremely small raises did not keep up with inflation. Also, absolutely nowhere to advance to without a degree.
