      Pros

      Steady paycheck, low pressure, ok advancement potential, defined duties and responsibilities. If you just want to slide through life, this is the place for you.

      Cons

      A typical politically correct public agency. If you are an in the box herd thinker welcome to your cubical feedlot. Prepare to get fat and stupid and then retire after 30 years.

      Pros

      * most executives and office chief leaderships are supportive and easy to talk to. * great diversity in the workplace, with many people from varying background being represented and promoted. * great work-life balance if you're a specialist.

      Cons

      * some senior branch chiefs end up working on weekends. * not specific to department, but state workers keep getting their raises cut.
