    Typical government

    Apr 27, 2016 - Anonymous Employee 
    Recommend
    CEO Approval
    Business Outlook

    Pros

    Good benefits across all agencies. SOME departments were well run and morale was great. Some agencies are better to work for than others. SOME have a fairly 'family' of co-workers atmosphere where everyone digs in together.

    Cons

    HR is centrally run from Richmond, and HR is set up punitively; 15 floors of people stamping a piece pf paper in triplicate and sending to the next desk. HR is archaic, and by design. The complication keeps the legislature from realizing they could save millions by going to an off-the shelf product by ADP, and fire most the over paid cronies staffing the Monroe building. Don't think HR will listen to or act upon employee concerns. The big line is 'this is a right-to-work state and if you don't like it, there is the door.' Many department heads are degree heavy autocrats with no real world experience or idea on how to manage their duties. Poorly paid office service specialists - mostly part time with no benefits - and contract staff, do the ACTUAL 'heavy lifting' in a job. there is little real teamwork. You can be brilliant, but a 900 year old half-retired coworker will get the promotion because of tenure and knowing all the HR staff.
