Reviews about "private sector"
Return to all Reviews- 4.0Nov 8, 2010ManagementCurrent Employee
Pros
Plenty of job opportunities throughout the various departments. Good benefits and competent management. Flexible schedules and friendly people. Excellent training and learning opportunity for entry-level types.
Cons
General public may stereotype you to be someone with a 'state worker' mentality. Pay is good compared to similar private sector jobs in entry and mid-level positions, but is lower in professional and upper-level management positions.

Pros
Good pay Great work hours Satisfying work
Cons
Politics- too many people infatuated with the most recent scandal Managers have never worked in the private industry and it shows. In the private sector one does what it takes to make it work or one fails. The public sector managers just don't get it.
