      Pros

      There was great pay. There were numerous opportunities for growth and senior leadership. Shift hours were open for discussion and available to change.

      Cons

      There was no medical insurance. Mileage compensation was very minimal. Training lasted for one week - forty hours.

      Great way to get paid, meet new people and help the country all at the same time.

      Pros

      Very flexible schedule. Pay rate is high. Supervisors are considerate and knowledgeable about the job. Employees are even reimbursed for transportation and phone call costs.

      Cons

      The 5 days of training is sometimes non-negotiable with its scheduling, and since its 8 hours on each of those days, it can pose as a problem to some potential employees who are unavailable during any of those times. It's rational though, since it's team training, and missing any of those days makes it hard to get you back in with everyone else. However, there are some times when there's an option of a rescheduling.

      Pros

      Good pay, easy hours, self-defined work schedule, can do field work alone. You are "official" & people respect your position.

      Cons

      There is a right way to do things, a wrong way to do things, and then there is the Census Bureau way of doing things...
