RecommendsPositive OutlookApproves of CEOI have been working at State of Minnesota full-time (More than 3 years)
Pros
Work is meaningful, work life balance, flexibility, job security, health insurance, sick and vacation leave, and pension.
Cons
Lots of contractors in IT positions, salary, not enough transparency, top heavy, not a lot of room for growth or opportunities, workplace bullying, slow pace, and not a lot of young people with fresh ideas.
Advice to Management
Don't enforce your values and beliefs on your subordinate. Be understanding of others preferences in terms of telecommuting policy. Way too many contractors that get lead positions. Managers should be judged on work performance on how they build their team members into lead and leadership position. Not a lot of support from management to grow.
