Decent place, if you know the people, and not in the corrupt departments/sections/units

Analyst Programmer (Current Employee)
Juneau, AK

I have been working at State of Alaska

ProsBelow are the pros if you find the few, honest sections/units to work for:

1. Family is priority. If you have a family problem (death, divorce, new baby), employer works with you.
2. Monthly potlucks!
3. Friendly co-workers and management

ConsBelow represents a high percentage of the workplaces

1. High turn over due to bad management.
2. Can be fired at any time for any reason (union agreements are not enforced)
3. Must be in a union to be hired.
4. Union have no role in employment except for collecting dues.
5. Credit is stolen (not credited where due)
6. Pay is extremely lower than average. Basically paid 30% of normal.

Advice to Senior ManagementGet rid of the bad apples. They are the reason the State of Alaska is losing tons of workers and money on a monthly basis.
