Pros

Hours good, nice staff, working conditions were comfortable.

Cons

The department in which I worked "released me from probation". I have no idea why. I had perfect attendance, my work exceeded their requirements and they promoted a person who was always late, missed several days and played on the computer.

Business Outlook

Pros

The County provides a lot of time off - annual leave, holidays, 4/10 schedules. CalPERS for retirement - pensions are a thing of the past. Some flexibility.

Cons

The HR Executive Management team is trying to perpetuate a culture of change while believing that change comes from the bottom up. No accountability from executive management, service managers, senior analysts, etc. Department full of non-performers with only a few exceptions.
