Pros

Location, easy access from light rail. The light rail stops right in front of the main building located at 1120 N Street. Parking around the building is terrible though. It is right next to the capitol building. Many state workers exercise

Cons

Students are treated with no respect. No parking. Not too many great eating spots around.

Pros

Stable, chances for advancement (dependent on location), more time off the longer you stick around

Cons

Heavy red tape, Analysts may be tasked with supporting way too many needy employees from their own and other units, low morale as a result.
