      Great people, but typical government job with limited advancement opportunity.

      Pros

      The people are great, and the types of jobs within the organization are almost unlimited. There really is something for everybody.

      Cons

      Advancement is based more on seniority than performance. If you want to speed up the process at all, don't just be the best at your job, be ready to move...multiple times all over the state.

      Favoritism, nepotism, engineer-centrism, and to a lesser degree, tenure, are the names of the game here.

      Pros

      They do have good health benefit, sick leave, and vacation leave days.

      Cons

      If you are not an engineer, part of the "good ol' boys or GIRLS club, or related (PROTECTED) by a person in an upper position, you can forget about moving up. TxDOT has the mentality that being an engineer means you can also MANAGE people which is obviously (go ahead and ask any younger to middle-aged NON-engineer and ask them if that's true) not reality.
